Hi Naturally, you can use drbd without clvm if you use standard primary/seconadry scheme and run lvm on primary only. Probably you can also lock LVM metadata operations using locking_type = 4 on host you are not going to run lvm commands on. The main problem of this approach is that you won't have your VGs and LVs activated on the 'passive' host until you do vgchange -a y on it, and on startup either. This can be fixed, of course, by means of cron and rc scripts.
