My response might be little late for you. However I have experienced problems with Shared SAM-FS/QFS and Sun Cluster 3.1.
The "did" devices on sun cluster creates SCSI locks for QFS/SAM-FS devices. SAM-FS/QFS does not work on locking mechanism. Even though the metadata for QFS is configured as Local-only in Sun cluster (scconf -a -D type=rawdisk,name=<name>,nodelist=<host1,host2>preferenced=<?>,globaldev=<meta device1>....<meta device2>...,localonly=true). The SAM-FS (archiving) clients hangs some times. I had to disable the sun cluster. If you want to use Sun Cluster make sure there are no clients attached to SAM-FS/QFS. It is risky. Prime Cluster (FUJITSU) is another possibility.
