I am managing a Proxmox cluster of 2 nodes with raw disk images on a MFS
volume, and I haven't any problem with it.

Actually I am mounting the mfs volume via an
/etc/network/if-up.d/moosefs-mount.sh, that mount the volume under
/srv/mfs, and on Proxmox I configured a new storage volume for virtual
images, that's all.

Bye.
