Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.

No it does not. It might show a smaller size than the underlying
device. (DRBD align the size to 4k, in case of internal metadata,
it cut off 128MB of the end of the device..)

I hope that with using LVM everybody creates a own LV for the 
metadata.
