Is available for Linux a filesystem with cache coherency across all the nodes in a cluster, efficient locking mechanism or with a distributed lock manager, with good scalability features and SAN (fibre channel) compatible?

We are going to build a mail farm and a big cluster (92 machines) for a research institute,
with fibre channel based storage system, but don’t know which filesystem to use:
- GFS – http://www.sistina.com
- OpenGFS – http://opengfs.sourceforge.net
- Lustre – http://www.lustre.org (not SAN compatible?)
- Matrix Server – http://www.polyserve.com
- CXFS – http://www.sgi.com/products/storage/cxfs.html
- GPFS – http://www.almaden.ibm.com/StorageSystems/file_sy
s tems/GPFS/ - SANpoint – http://www.veritas.com
