Florian,
Thanks again 

OK, what you're saying that highly available iSCSI target cannot be created if
DRBD is running in Dual-Primary mode between node1 and node2 and either node1 
or node2 is an iscsi target /dev/drbd0 with ocfs2 on top of it for the 
remaining node3.

Is this the correct assumption or not?

This DRBD behavior in regard to iSCSI or OCFS2 is not documented anywhere, so 
please clarify this for the last time.

Best regards and thanks,

Alex

I believe Lars already explained that in considerable detail why it's
not working.

And if you want OCFS over 3 nodes _and_ DRBD redundancy, create a highly
available iSCSI target (using regular Single-Primary DRBD), then mount
that iSCSI target from 3 nodes.

Cheers,
Florian
