How does it prevent it? Is it as I described in my last message in the GUI? Does using a raw disk really prevent the GUI from preventing one from assigning the disk to two VMs? This is not so bad if it's the case since I would use real disks anyway -- which is what I do with VMware Server currently. I've never tried to share virtual disks. > You could do it with a raw device and you'd have to each VM > install a Clustered File System - theoretically it should work. But if the GUI prevents the dual assignment as above, it won't be possible. > Apparently VMware Server makes it very simple to implement the `shared > disk' "simple"? Maybe. It requires some .vmdk file tweaks. But that's for another list. :-) b.
