Yeah, I have 8.4.1 on just two pairs of servers (and I keep an eye on these), one of the pair has kernel 3.x series (manually updated it), and the other is using this patch: http://git.drbd.org/gitweb.cgi?p=drbd-8.4.git;a=commitdiff;h=55a81dc (yes, Lars, it seems to work just fine this far) With Scientific Linux 6.2 stock kernel, and custom-built drbd 8.4.1 Both seems to be working just fine, and a bothersome performance issue (reads would freeze while you was doing heavy write, a large file copy onto the drbd volume was enough to trigger this) I was having with 8.3.x, went away too, at least most of the time, which is "good enough" for these systems.
