Is this solution supported by RedHat?

If I am correct, it isn't:
https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-17651

With HA-LVM you will loose the live-migration...

And if I am correct, as the redhat cluster suite's resource script do not 
activate the vgs (or lvs)  exclusively (that can be an option when you are 
using clustered LVM), nothing would prevent the second node to start the vm 
that is already running on the master node (which would probably kill your 
filesystems in your vm) in a split brain situation (except a "reliable" 
fencing).

If I am correct, the only supported method is CLVMD+GFS(2) if you want live 
migration for a VM. Is this true?

Balazs
