I'm running the gpfs filesystem successfully in a domU. This setup has gpfs with
directly attached disks, so to run gpfs in a second domU in the same
machine I need to be able to have more than one domU with rw access (gpfs
will arbitrate the access to the disks).

Is there a way that I can accomplish this, i.e, to avoid the
restriction of at most one domU mouting the device rw ?

Instead of "rw" or "r" use "w!", this will allow you to export a "mounted" disk, see: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/srg/netos/xen/readmes/user/ user.html#SECTION03210000000000000000
for not much more info :(
