Having gone through the exercise recently: not really, no. Old-style 
configs still work as of 3.0.3, though.

We have a netapp fas2020: it's expensive, not open-sores or lignux 
based, but compared to heartbeat/drbd it can easily be cheap at the 
price. Especially if you come to work one Sunday afternoon to run "yum 
update" on the fileservers and find out it helpfully fixed your broken 
(as in "pointing to the drbd filesystem that isn't mounted") symlinks 
and you have to spend the next 8 hours unfscking the resulting mess. 
(That is aside from the stuff you mentioned earlier.)
