I've run DRBD inside virtual guests as well as on a virtual hosts - both
without issues. It depends on your use case. 

It sounded to me like Antonio was planning on running DRBD in two VMs
that he has to do P-to-V migrations on.

But DRBD must be running in the host, not in the guest (VM).

        I don't know of a reason you wouldn't want to run DRBD on a VM.
        I've had no issues doing so.

        ​​Hi list:
        
        I need your help ... I have to migrate two physical servers with
        DRBD+Pacemaker+Corosync to virtual machines. On the new set of
        virtual machines I will can manage more hardware resources but,
        do you have any reason advise against using DRBD on virtual
        machines?
        
        I hope your answers.
        
        Thanks in advance.
        
        Regards,
        
        Antonio.​
