Do you NEED direct access?

Also, you could use host-based volume shadowing so that every node (six 
member are supported---do you have more?) could have access to a member 
of the shadow set.  Of course, shadow sets are good to have anyway.

My cluster uses SCSI, HBVS, and MSCP serving.  Things are set up so that 
if there is quorum, then all shadow sets---though not all members---are 
available.
