RH do support the use of DRBD with RH Cluster Suite, I guess in limited
circumstances (and not all the packages you see).

But you have to have a contract with Linbit to support the DRBD side so
RH can escalate to them if issues are on their side and not the Red Hat
Side.

There was a long RFE Bugzilla on getting DRBD into RHEL 6.

Thanks
