Is there a specific reason to mount the lun directly opposed to creating a virtual disk? Performance, maybe?
More like, if you wanted the storage under the LUN to be shared through the VM. Essentially, mount the LUN into the VM and then run NFS/SMB from the VM as a NAS. Works out pretty well since with a little bit of trickery you can have a NAS that is also HA (assuming the storage pool doesn't go down).
With that said, I'm very interested too.
Unless I completely misunderstood your question
