Hello KonstantinTSM,
When you are using MD3000i & want to connect a virtual disk to 2 host & have read & write access you need to have some locking file system like a cluster in order to not have any corruption of your data. If you don’t have any file system that doesn’t have any file locking mechanism in place then you will not be able to prevent data corruption. Here is a link to the users guide for your MD3000i. ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_ser_stor_net/esuprt_powervault/powervault-md3000i_User%27s%20Guide20_en-us.pdf
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
