Hi,

I am trying to understand whether OpenVZ/Containers can be used in a clustered environment

I have both Windows and Linux VMs and it seems there are quite a few advantages to have Linux running as CT
However, when I try to create a new one the only storage option I get is "local"

is it possible to use NFS mounted partitions ?
If yes, how/where should they be added ?
Should they be using CLVM ?
Can I use raw storage like for theimages

Please note I already have NFS partitons correctly configured for ISO and backups

yes, you need to create a NFS storage for containers, see Datacenter/Storage.
