Hi,

I'd like to enable the ko-count option in my drbd.conf on the primary (and 
secondary). I'd like to test it out and have been unsuccessful at doing so. 
I've tried to create a logical volume with a drbd device on top of it and when 
I use dmsetup to:

dmsetup suspend <underlying-volume> - nothing happens. It's almost like drbd 
knows that the volume is suspended and everything is "ok". Even though the 
write/read calls are blocked on the DRBD primary, nothing is logged, nothing 
times out.

dmsetup rename <underlying volume> - volume renames fine. DRBD doesn't care and 
continues to function. I think drbd the major/minor numbers, etc. and doesn't 
care about the name after it's fired up.

dmsetup remove -f <underlying volume> - Will not perform this action as DRBD is 
using it, even with a force.

Is there any way I can replicate a secondary going offline in this fashion to 
test the behaviour? ie. tcp/ip stack is fine, drbd answers the request, sends 
the write out and the underlying device on the secondary fails to write? I'm 
stumped.
