No good. drbd needs a lot of reliable bandwidth. Loosing sync between
two online servers that use drbd is a reciepe for misery.
I would suggest AFS (Andrew Filesystem) for that. I know there is
an open implementation of that these days, tho I never used. I had
some experience with it (the old commercial version) running on AIX.
We were able to keep filesystems in sync over a 19.2K link.
