Doubt it...

OK, Florian, thanks.

While I waited to hear back from you, I tried this on our test cluster:

  # bunch of primitives, then...
  group Shared-FS dlm clvm o2cb vg1 fs1
  clone Shared-FS_clone meta interleave="true"

and it seems to work.

Do you suppose I'm asking for trouble having all five resources in that one
group?

Best,
Mike
