[Linux-cluster] Redhat cluster and GFS node limit

Hi all,

I have a project which requires a cluster of over 100 GFS nodes. GFS supports
them, but RH cluster supports only 16 nodes. For this case the documentation
says:

"Red Hat GFS is scalable up to 300 nodes, a Red Hat Cluster Manager limits the
total number of nodes in a cluster to 16. Therefore, in this scenario, Red Hat
GFS scalability is limited. If the 16-node limit is too small for your
deployment, you may want to consider using multiple Red Hat Cluster Manager
clusters."

So any docs or ideas on how to build "multiple Red Hat Cluster Manager
clusters"? 
Will this solution enable all 100+ nodes to access the same File system? 


Thank you!
Hal
