It is sold that way for small 2-4 node clusters when cost is an issue, although FC has become a big favorite (um...money maker) in recent years.  Yes, SCSI bus resets are a pain, but they are handled by HP-UX, not ServiceGuard.

The key there is that HP-UX is what's different, not specifically
ServiceGuard.  ServiceGuard on Linux will have the same pitfalls, and
won't work well, even if HP *does* support it. :(
