This example based on my environment below. I used hda6 that is empty partition for this config.
(1) www.server-linux.info[192.168.0.18]
(2) www2.server-linux.info[192.168.0.21]
Install and configure DRBD on both Host. Configure the same settings on them. For installing, Specify "kmod-drbd", the DRBD is also installed.The package that you need is e.g :-
1)
drbd82-8.2.6-1.el5.centos.i386.rpm
2) kmod-drbd82-8.2.6-2.i686.rpm
[root@www ~]# yum -y install kmod-drbd-xen
[root@www ~]# vi /etc/drbd.conf

on www2.server-linux.info {

As with nodes we count the total number of devices mirrored by DRBD at
at http://usage.drbd.org.
The counter works completely anonymous. A random number gets created for
this device, and that randomer number and the devices size will be sent.

[3] If you'd like to mount DRBD device on secondary Host, unmount DRBD device on primary Host first and make primary Host secondary first. Next make secondary Host primary and mount DRBD devicet
########### on primary host ###########
[root@www ~]# umount /mnt/drbd
[root@www ~]# drbdadm secondary r0 # make it secondary
########### on secondary host ###########
[root@www2 ~]# drbdadm primary r0 # make it primary

[4] Resolve the issue (split brain) been happen in currently whereby drbd response status showing unknown status. to recover a split brain status in drbd here is the following steps need to be taken:-
under Slave drbd run the following command :-
#drbdadm disconnect all
# drbdadm -- --discard-my-data connect all
Primary drbd
# drbd connect all
# service drbd start
