PERC3 PV220S RAID Question.

Hi,

Apologies for slightly off topic post (more hardware than Linux 
related). However:

Is it possible to set up two 1650s with PERC3/Di RAID controllers to 
both share a RAID 5 volume on contained on a PV220S (with the goal of 
then putting a clustered file system on the volume to be shared between 
the two servers)

We have someone trying to set this up, but having problems getting both 
servers to recognize the RAID volume (The second box to boot fails 
initializing the PERC with a 'Foreign Volume' error).

Have tried various combinations of split-bus setting on the 220S and 
SCSI ID on the hosts with no luck.

Thanks,

David.
