Chris, they are working on it. It is 4-6 weeks out at present. I
think you have the right idea: for GFS on parallel SCSI, use a
multi-port RAID controller, and let it isolate the machines from
each other. This also gives you hot pluggability and RAID redundancy.
Silicon Gear is another parallel SCSI RAID vendor selling DLOCK and DMEP
support: www.silicon-gear.com. Hopefully more will be on the way
soon.
