It sounds like you need something more like GFS, then.  I'm not
confident with OCFS2 and its limitations to even consider right now.

I would export the storage device from the disk server with NBD, make an
CLVM2 volume on it, and put GFS on it.  That way you can resize the
share if you need to and you get the consistent naming that you need for
migration.

Thank you for your thoughts on this subject!

It sounds like a plan but how about the performance in GFS I have read that it is not very good have you god any experince with that ?
