A couple of years ago, no vendor has a distributed file system (one that
will let all nodes in a cluster to mount and access the same file system
simultaneously).
And that's why we had to use raw device. Maybe DG had it? So which vendor
has it then and who has it now?

Scott,
Thanks for answering a question I asked Oracle several
years ago. Tried and tried, could never get an answer.
We were considering OPS on DG Aviion Systems using
Clariion RAID ( now owned by EMC I believe ) and that
system did share filesystems between nodes. ( OS was DG/UX )
Never could get an answer from anyone on whether we
would be required to used raw with this setup. I suspected
that it would not be necessary.
Now 6 years later, I get my answer. :)
