Hi,

I remembered that part wrong and described how it should be, not how it
actually is :-/. From what I see in the plugin, "allow-tow-primaries" is
set in alloc_image() and never reset. Honestly, I don't know if Proxmox
even provides hooks for live migration where this could be turned on and
back off again.

With the LVM/LVM-thin plugins drbdmanage creates an LV for every DRBD
volume (in general a resource can have multiple volumes). AFAIK in
Proxmox environments it is one volume per resource. So you end up with
one LV per resource. The "allow-two-primaries" is set on resource level.
But as I know now, it is enabled for every resource created via the
plugin.

Regards, rck
