Quinn Thanks. I could use NFS, but the master slave shared docs (very Spartan) indicated SAN. If ext4 is not the proper filesystem. What should I use? I could use NFS, but I was concerned over performance. Also, NFS in a VM environment would require a third server?
Node 1 Node 2 NFS server (I would not think it would be prudent to use nfs from one of the two nodes?)

I've used NFSv4 and GFSv2 for these setups. If I'm reading this correctly, you've setup a volume on a SAN and mounted it on both systems as an ext4 filesystem. If that's the case, I think that is your issue - ext4 is not a shared filesystem and it isn't cluster aware.
