Is it possible to take a group of fibre channel drives on a fc-al loop, 
run raid 5 on top of them, run lvm on top of that, then gfs on top of 
that, and have the entire thing readable/writable by multiple machines 
at the same time?  I have searched amongst lvm, clvm, evms, nbd, enbd, 
linux software raid, etc. but to no avail.  I assume that both clvm or 
evms would suit me to make the drives available to multiple machine 
concurrently, but not allow redundancy.  Hopefully I am wrong and this 
is in fact possible.

Thanks!
Thomas
