Yes, but not for DB2 HADR.

I've done it for DB2 v9 SE with necessary filesystems on SAN.
So, if one node dies, all filesystems are taken over and
db2 started on the other node.

The db2 RA provided by HA package relies on having the instance
home with all db2 tools available all the time.
I changed this behaviour.

This looks to me as you need a really clone aware RA for this.
You can be sure that there are interested people out there. :-)

If you or someone else is interested I could provide my OCF RA
for DB2v9 single instance with optional moving instance home
filesystems and the possibility to handle databases in permanent
rollforward mode.
