If i was building new infrastructure today with 2 or more machines hosting VMs i would probably look at using CEPH as the storage layer for the Virtual machines. this would provide distributed mirrored storage that is accessible from all machines. all machines could then be storage and VM hosts.

CEPH does sound exciting. Is anyone here doing it with Xen? James
