                           ^^

it is one s only.  yes, I see that "handler not known" is not a really
helpful message.  I try to improve on that.

btw,
I don't really see the point of doing DRBD between DomUs,
appart from playing around.
it is usually much more sensible to have the DRBD in the Dom0.
