EL5 updated drbd84 packages released

Updated drbd84 packages version 8.4.1 have been promoted from testing to the main repository.

 http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-drbd84

This package provides an updated DRBD driver, version 8.4.1, and is kABI compatible with all kernels from 6.0 (kernel-2.6.32-71.el6) upwards.

It is built to depend upon the specific ABI provided by a range of releases of the same variant of the Linux kernel and not on any one specific build.

x86
drbd83-utils-8.4.1-1.el6.elrepo.i686.rpm
kmod-drbd83-8.4.1-1.el6.elrepo.i686.rpm

x86_64
drbd83-utils-8.4.1-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
kmod-drbd83-8.4.1-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

SRPMS
drbd83-kmod-8.4.1-1.el6.elrepo.src.rpm
drbd83-utils-8.4.1-1.el6.elrepo.src.rpm

You may update your system by:

yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=elrepo update kmod-drbd84 drbd84-utils

Once the package has been updated, remember to unload the older driver version from the kernel by restarting your DRBD resources and reloading the DRBD driver.
