guys,

i'm going to reuse an hp packaged cluster based on 2x proliant dl380 g4 servers + scsi msa500 g2 storage to create aproxmox 3.1 ha cluster.....

i'm in doubt on how to setup the shared storage (i suppose the units will correctly see the msa500 directly attached with redundant scsi cables)

another question is rising, if i correctly remember there where some issues on this server integrated nics (broadcomm firmaware was required in some linux distros!!)

pls note, this cluster is actually running win 2003 enterprise with canonical ms cluster configration based on hp whitepapers (i've installed it some years ago and all was running fine with sql2005 + erp software from third party software house)

we plan to reuse storage as cluster quorum volume (so we can obtain a 2 nodes + quorum configuration) + vm storage area as lvm...
which filesystem i nedd to use for the shared storage?!?!

waiting your suggestions and ideas!!

kind regards,
francesco
