Hi mark,

I have built rpm's from source. It creates 3 rpm's 
Drbd, drbd-debuginfo,drbd-km. which among these do I need to re install
after upgrade. Also would I require to stop the HA/drbd service on both
the nodes before upgrade .Then start the OS upgrade. Then upgrade the
drbd package and then start the drbd service.

Thanks

Since RedHat doesn't come with DRBD, I assume you've built it yourself
against your current running kernel?
You'll have to rebuild the kernel module against the new kernel, but you
shouldn't need to rebuild your drbd userland tools, and you shouldn't
need a resync.

Mark.
