netserver rs/12 + linux clustering

I am in need of assistance. I have 2 servers (LH2000R/512 Meg Memory/ 2 processors/ Netraid2m in each)that we are building as a SUSE linux cluster. Our external Storage is a Netserver rs/12 with bays 0-11 populated. The rs/12 only has 2 scsi ports on the back. I can plug one server into each port and see drives 0-5 on each side of the array or I can plug both RS12 scsi's to a single server and see 0-11. What I need is to see 0-11 on both linux servers.

Are there additional boards or configurations that can be installed to this RS12 to allow for this type of configuration?

For what I remember, for a cluster, you need two scsi card inserted in the back if the RS/12, and there is a jumper that allow you to see all the disk from both scsi channels(cluster mode).
But I do not know if the linux cluster could manage the contention of the disks by both systems
