LVM does not work across multiple server machines. I could
certainly posit wanting to use the 200G drives from 5 different

I wonder if you could use iSCSI to share the drives from multiple
servers and combine them with LVM

Yes, you could, but only on a block level. All servers would always need
to be up-and-running simultaneously, otherwise LVM will not activate the
volumegroup.
Also, the contents of the disks would only make sense on the server
running LVM: it would not be possible to access the data on one of the
other 5 servers.
So: although possible, probably not a good idea.
True. Once I sent it I starting thinking, jeez, a reboot would really
mess that LVM up.
