If you pull the cable, you may get 'eth1 link down' somewhere (console,
/var/log/messages), or not. If you have a hardware error on the NIC
something should crash I think, though I don't remember ever seeing that.

I've heartbeat (as in 3.0.4 w/ haresources) pings going over the
crossover cable as well, so I don't specifically monitor that link or
drbd status. I do monitor eth0 (for 'link detected' in the output of
ethtool).

I also have nagios checking drbd for UpToDate/UpToDate, but that's not
part of the cluster.
