<p><font size="+1"><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Is it
possible to run Linstor with DRBD Mode B?</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Linstore
states it will accept "ONLY MODE C"<br>
</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">We have
used mode B for ages without any problems. Mode C doubles the
DRBD latency because of the second disk access.<br>
</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">[In our
case the network TTL can be neglected since we are using an
Infiniband Network with TTLs wide below the rotational latency
of our spinning disks.]<br>
