Hello all,

I have a quite silly question I guess but it's been bugging me up recently.

A client has just acquired a SAN for his servers.
Between these servers he also has 2 mysql ones.

What would happen if I were to define a single shared disk on the SAN
and I place both Mysqls to work in the same directory on the SAN ?

In case of a simultaneous "INSERT" operation on both would one wait
after the other and know of a lock in place / would the data get
corrupted / etc ?

Please explain if you had a similar curiosity in the past or
experimented (either with SAN, NFS, Group Filesystem, etc and same
installation/working directory for several Mysql instances)

Thank you,

Mihai
