Hello Ralf, LVM on top of DRBD works great for me. The only problem is LVM wants to autodetect at startup its configuration using some sort of signature or super block. LVM scanns all available block devices for its signature and refuses DRBD-devices, because they have the same UID as the underlying devices. So you have to make sure, LVM sees ONLY your DRBD-devices and not the devices DRBD uses. This is done in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf with the "filter" statement.
