I run some 1.1.7 debian base pacemaker clusters for a long time now without any issue and I am sure that this version seems to run very stable so as long as I am not facing a specific problem with this version

I know that there have been a lot changes since this "ancient" version. 
But I was just curios if there was something that in specific might be 
related to my problem. I work tightly connected to software develepment 
in our company and so i know that "newer" does not automatically mean 
"with less bugs" or especially "with less bugs concerning ME". Thats why 
I suspect "install the recent version" to be trial end error- which 
might for sure help in some cases but does not enlight the corresponding 
problem in any way.

That is what I suspect too. and why I passed this question to the drbd 
mailing list, I am now nearly totally convinced that pacemaker isn't 
doing anything wrong here cause the drbd RA sets a master score of 1000 
on either side which accoring to my constraints was the signal for 
pacemaker to promote.

regards, Felix
