Hi mark, I have built rpm's from source. It creates 3 rpm's Drbd, drbd-debuginfo,drbd-km. which among these do I need to re install after upgrade. Also would I require to stop the HA/drbd service on both the nodes before upgrade .Then start the OS upgrade. Then upgrade the drbd package and then start the drbd service.

Since RedHat doesn't come with DRBD, I assume you've built it yourself against your current running kernel? You'll have to rebuild the kernel module against the new kernel, but you shouldn't need to rebuild your drbd userland tools, and you shouldn't need a resync.
