Yes. > And if yes, which componenten is responsible for waiting from the signal > from drbd that syncing has finished? The ocf:linbit:drbd resource agent (the Pacemaker resource agent that ships with DRBD) influences the resource master score, which Pacemaker evaluates for the placement of the DRBD Master role among cluster nodes. You can combine this with a location contraint that sets a preference for one of your nodes as the DRBD Master (Primary). If you set your location constraint score correctly, you would get the behavior you want. However, why do you want automatic failback? If your cluster nodes are interchangeable in terms of performance, you shouldn't need to care which node is the master. In other words the concept of having a "preferred master" is normally moot in well-designed clusters. Hope this is useful.
