Hmm, it's my impression though that this added complexity is mainly usefull for big cluster with a sh*tload of nodes and resources. I just need to have simple 2-node clusters, for fileservices or Asterisk servers. Anyways, I just added a resource_stickiness to the drbd resource and now it seems to do what I want. I still don't get the complete picture, but hopefully I will live long enough to do so one day ;-) Have a great weekend!
