> So I'm very new to DRBD... my question is what is the "proper" procedure for placing a node in maintenance mode to shut it down and say move it. Right now I need to shut down my secondary node to verify hardware, I want to learn it the right way.. and hopefully not have any issues when the secondary comes back online..  I have 2 hosts.. primary/secondary cluster configuration.

When properly configured, shutting a DRBD/Pacemaker node down is
accomplished with

/sbin/poweroff

... which will cause Pacemaker to migrate away services, properly shut
down DRBD, stop cluster management, and then initiate an orderly system
shutdown.

Cheers,
