Thank for the answare.
I have read the article.
So:
- for shutdown the cluster i must before stopping drbd on primary node 
and after shutdown the two machine (graceful shutdown): a question, but 
shutting down are not executed the 'drbd stop' ?
- for mounting the filesystem i must make this manually or use datadisk
- never i can mount the filesystem on the secondary machine

An other question:

are possible to increase the speed of syncronization? For syncing 73Gb 
needs 20h! So is very difficult to probe the mechanism.

On the log i have this messages:
May 31 01:32:49 elena kernel: drbd0: Connection established. 
size=73545472 KB / blksize=4096 B
May 31 01:32:49 elena kernel: drbd0: Synchronisation started blks=15


Thank
