I had thought about DRBd, but would rather not mirror over network links, when I can mirror over the SAN.
Then I guess that is something you need to bring up with your SAN vendor.
I am also not sure how DRBD would handle our running a Postgresql database on top of it, having never used DRBD in production. Do you have any experience with databases on DRBD?
Yes, I have been using DRBD for backing databases in fail-over scenarios for years. Provided that your fencing works properely and that you don't try to mount the device on both sides at the same time, it'll work fine.
