That's actually how I have my primary storage setup using a gfs2 cluster. In this case I want the storage to only be local to that host though. I have some VMs running that will work better if they have exclusive access to a spindle. Just wanted to make sure this feature isn't already there before I start poking around to figure out how to add the ability. Thanks, Dave
