It probably depends more on the filesystem you're going to pave over
your SAN. I had a test setup with three nodes over GFS (which from
dovecot's POV is simply a local POSIX compliant fs) for a couple of
weeks and it worked fine. But for other reasons it never went into
production, it was only stressed under lab conditions.
