Hi,

Why trouble around with activating DRBD in the CT ?
If you have the CTs running on 2 different Hosts let the Hosts do the
DRBD stuff and simply mount the DRBD partitions into the CTs.
I might be misunderstanding your request. So please forgive me if this
advise total rubbish :-)

regards,

Sirk
