[Techtalk] Accessing a LUN From Multiple Linux Systems

Hi,

I have two Red Hat servers connected to a SAN with fibre channel.
I presented a LUN to the two servers and I can see it on both as a raw device.
When I mount the LUN in one server I can't access it on the other server.

To mount a device in Linux we need a file system and I believe I can't
format the same partition in two different servers.
I found GFS on Red Hat website. Is this the right way to go?

Thank you.

Regards,
