Dunno about drbd, but for OCFS2 that's right.

That's right too. You can mount the upgraded node version or the old
version node, but can't mount both in cluster mode (concurrently) due
to network protocol incompatibility, as it can change between releases.
The on-disk data structures don't change between releases, so its safe
to umount the volume with the old driver, mount with the newer driver,
test anything you want and rollback to the old, by umounting the new
and mounting the old, if you find some trouble.
At my job we have done it to change from version 1.2 to 1.4 and it was a
flawless and sweet upgrade.
Regards,
