No, I don't think it will work :).  What are you using for
load-balancing/availabilty?  Veritas Cluster Server?  Cisco Distributed
Director?
I don't think you are going to have much luck with running
an active/active scenario with sympa.  I'm not sure what your mount
points contain since they are not standard paths.  You'll need to share
almost everything.  You'll need to set lock_method to
nfs, also.
