You *CAN NOT* safely proceed when a node stops responding _until_ you
have put the lost node into a known state. To do otherwise would be to
risk a split-brain.

A good fence device are switched PDUs, like the APC-brand AP7900 (not
all makes/models are supported, so check first before buying other
brands). The AP7900 can usually be found used for ~$200 and makes an
excellent external fence device.

Trying to use DRBD without proper fencing will result in pain and
heartache. The delay needed to fence a lost node is FAR preferable to
risking a split-brain.
