However, two nodes can have two DRBD resources each, with two iSCSI
targets on top (each node exporting one of them, with cross failover to
the other node using pacemaker for instance). That makes a nice dual
active/passive setup, with some load balancing across the two nodes. The
cost of that is that you end up with two datastores, instead of just
one...

I created a virtual SAN this way using two VMs, but I bet it would work
the same on physical nodes...
