Ok, a specific LUN cannot be shared, but you can create two different
LUNs and assign them to two different servers. So, you can share the
pool of space between two different servers.

OO>And why is handling RAID volumes a high cost?
It's the difficulty in creating MULTIPLE RAID volumes, deciding how big
each of them should be, and assigning them to servers. You will always
have LUNs that are too big and/or too small, creating waste and
management issues, respectively. You also (today) can't share those
volumes between multiple backup servers. A VTL can be shared between
multiple servers.
