 Hi all.

 I am currently installing drbd on Centos 6.3 x86_64 and have two possible
 repos to choose.
 Which one in your opinion is better/provides more stable packages/etc.?


IMHO, you will have no problems whatever you choose, but note that 
packages sometimes are built differently, so paths, various scripts, 
required libraries etc. may be different.

If there are no such differences, I would choose the most recent 
version. If there are, it gets more complex; you might need to test (on 
a test environment) both, before setting up a production environment.

Good luck,
Nick

Also, see if one of the repos has other packages you might need...
The less alternate repos, the better for a system...

indeed, that and how actively the repo updates its packages and what its 
lifecycle is for packages for older releases, thats my biggest concern.

I use the one in elrepo ... and it works, which is why CentOS does not
maintain one in extras for CentOS-6 :D
