That works well, and I'm sure catches 98% of questions, which is probably good enough. For the rest of us, we're glad to have the mailing list to pound it into us. Some people need to push the envelope, sticking to a documented procedure and an entry-level wage is not for everyone. There are some that need to explore what's beyond, ask the whys, come up with novel solutions, and that's probably the reason why DRBD was developed in the first place. I'm in a position now where if I just said "well, we can't do protocol B because it says so in the documentation", I'd be asked the reason for the limitation, and whether we could patch it, as in passing it sounds like it could work for special scenarios. I'm glad that I don't have to resort to hours worth of tracing through code to find out.
