FWIW I've been using 8.4.0 from ATrpms for a while now without problems. 
Never tried upgrading a live cluster from 8.3 to 8.4, though.

Does their kernel module package work across kernel updates?

What I find extremely annoying is that atrpm's packagea are named (e.g.) 
drbd-kmdl-2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.centosplus.x86_64 -- i.e. kernel arch, 
version, and repo are all part of the package *name*. You have to 
remember to yum install new drbd-kmdl every time centos releases a 
kernel update. Sometimes atrpms take a few days to build it, and 
sometimes they never do (happend with some centosplus kernels).

It's annoying enough to bite the bullet & "upgrade" to elrepo packages 
-- provided they built their kernel module properly and it doesn't 
require a reinstall every damn time.
