Pardon me for my ignorance. I ask this for my own education, than anything.

Would concurrent volume groups allow this kind of behavior?

Clustering could mean several different things!

With regard to Oracle, it could mean Oracle Parallel Edition, which is
actual parallel, concurrent, access. That's unlikely, as it's expensive and
complicated.

More likely he's talking about an Oracle standby database, which has a
similar purpose to HACMP, but doesn't have the network features, (e.g. IP
Address Takeover) and uses a different physical copy of the database, I
think.

Normal AIX JFSs cannot be used concurrently by two different systems.
