I have two nodes with DRBD 8.3. Now I want to stop using DRBD and use

command for that. How can it be done?
You don't really need to delete it at all, it's at the end of the block
device so it can be ignored. You can just use (mount or whatever) the
underlying block device directly.
Although gdisk says that the partition with the user data is "8300
Linux filesystem", when I try to mount it after stopping drbd I get
mount: unknown filesystem type 'drbd'
So it looks like I have to wipe out the meta data first. But I need to
know its offset and size. Unfortunately I cannot understand how to get
it from the textual dump made by 'drbdmeta dump-md'. The offset
mentioned there does not seem to point to the meta data.
