Hi all,

I am wondering if it is possible to configure DRBD to detach from it's local disk after multiple IO errors?  Some cases there may be retryable read errors because of some kind of a hiccup.  I understand the whole "all-or-nothing" approach here, but I don't want to have my machine detach it's devices just because of heavy I/O or something. 

I am referring to these articles

Thoughts?

Thanks!
