Re: [Xen-users] High availability and live migration with just LVM	and h 
| Did some further research in the meantime and so far the best reason I can 
find for using cLVM, is the making changes to the volume groups: with cLVM 
they seem to be "published" to all Xen hosts at once, while with LVM one needs 
to reconnect to the volume group (probably causing weird things to the 
guests).
 
Agreed, I wouldn't touch his setup without clvm being there.  It does 
other nice things like making sure each cluster member can see the block 
devices before allowing changes to LVM state, which is nice when you 
have to zone and mask dozens of disks.  cLVM is a must in my book.
