I didn't think this part was true. The issue being that all nodes need to be aware of possible metadata changes to the volume group and logical volumes. clvm (which I believe is supported by Novell) can handle that locking between nodes so that they have a consistent view of the metadata, but last I checked it used a different cluster stack that wasn't quite supported by ocfs2 yet and running both sided by side would run into some fencing issues. Alternatively I think you can (read unsupported, but does work) do simple LVM configurations like linear spans since they don't have any striping metadata information that needs to be updated. The trick is that you need to take everything offline when you want to make any changes to the volume group or logical volume.
