With DRBD 9, you *have* to set the node id in the configuration.
If there is a way around that, we need to fix it.

Also, IMO, in virtually all 8 -> 9 upgrade scenarios, you are better off
creating new DRBD 9 meta data instead of trying to "convert".

Still; your suggestion seems sensible enough.

Thanks,
