Shared disk creation using VMWare

Virtualization software: VM Ware workstation 8
I want to install GI 11.2 on my laptop.
I was under the impression that shared LUNs for grid installation can only be created using Openfiler. But according to the below document it is possible

But Dan Norris says "+VMWare Workstation has a limitation related to disk sharing, so that’s one reason we’re using VMWare Server (which has no such restriction).+"
I don't know which version of VMWare Workstation is he talking about. Is it possible to create shared LUNs using VM Ware workstation 8 (which I have ) ?
