DRDB is active/passive, and GFS needs to be able to access the fs from both
nodes simultaneously, so no.   There has been some discussion about making
DRDB active/active, in which case you could probably run GFS over it (on 2
nodes) but AFAIK, it's not done yet, and if it is done, nobody's tested it.

Regards,
