In 7 or 8 years of running several DRBD pairs I had split brain about 5 times and at least 2 of them were because I tugged on the crosslink cable while mucking around the back of the rack. Maybe if you run a zillion of stacked active-active resources on a 100-node cluster DRBD split brain becomes a real problem, from where I'm sitting stonith'ing DRBD nodes is a solution in search of a problem. -- Dimitri Maziuk Programmer/sysadmin BioMagResBank, UW-Madison -- http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu
