I have Proxmox with drbd and ocfs2. In the past I had successful upgrades from 1.1 to 1.3. My question is - if I perform an upgrade to 1.4 will this break my existing drbd/ocfs2 configuration?

Thanks.

how should we know your custom setup? just try in a test environment.

Why do you think it will break drbd/ocsf2?

For example will the upgrade delete the existing drbd configuration, the metadata? I ask this, because 1.4 is the first release, which will install drbd8-utils and probably will upgrade the existing installation on my servers.

We do not delete anything. But I do not know you local setup, so I can't tell if anything gets updated.
 
Just for information if anyone is interested - upgrade went without a problem. I was prompted if I would like to keep my drbd.conf.
Unfortunately, it seems, that drbd storage on the data partition (/var/lib/vz) is unsupported. Online migration is not possible and offline migration just deletes the disk image.
