Don't be. I suspect you have done a "yum groupinstall" and found that the default set of packages for that group includes kmod-gfs and kmod- gnbd which are kernel modules for the stock kernel, which is why they pull that in.

Am I excluded from running Xen with clustering?

Nope, you just either have to:

Live with both kernels existing, do what you did before, then do "yum install kmod-gfs-xen kmod gnbd-xen" to add the kernel modules for your Xen kernel as well.

or

Don't use "yum groupinstall" use "yum install Global_File_System-en-US gfs-utils gnbd kmod-gfs-xen kmod-gnbd-xen lvm2-cluster" to get the same thing. (sneaky mode!)

The PAE kernel is also supported as well.

Thanks - that turns up groups "Cluster" and "Cluster Storage", which is
probably exactly what I want!

I'd try:

yum grouplist|more

pick out what looks promising

yum groupinstall "Name of promising group"

I believe it is as simple as logging in to RHN, adding the system to
the

appropriate Cluster/GFS channel, then yum install <package>
