Well, detach only works if you're connected anyway, and doesn't cause
data inconsistencies, it "just" causes loss of redundancy.
Now, drbdadm disconnect etc also causes loss of redundancy. If you don't
want that a command is performed, I'd rather suggest to not give the
command but expect the system to question your order ;-)

Yes. It means all actually IO goes via the peer; not only writes, but
also reads.
