2 Things to think about:
1) Do what you would do without xen. Throw the power switch.
That means you have to teach stonit or heartbeat about xen and the
power switch becomes "xm destroy" on the other node instead of a real
power switch.
2) Would it make sense to have a bit in the lvm headers to show that a
volume is active and have cluster lvm respect that bit and prevent a
second activation if run wihtout force?
Maybe instead of a bit an UUID of the activator would be best. If you
can get a UUID that differs between the physical machines running the
domUs.
