Hi all.
I am currently installing drbd on Centos 6.3 x86_64 and have two possible repos to choose. Which one in your opinion is better/provides more stable packages/etc.?
Best regards, Rafal Radecki.

IMHO, you will have no problems whatever you choose, but note that packages sometimes are built differently, so paths, various scripts, required libraries etc. may be different.
If there are no such differences, I would choose the most recent version. If there are, it gets more complex; you might need to test (on a test environment) both, before setting up a production environment.
Good luck, Nick

Also, see if one of the repos has other packages you might need... The less alternate repos, the better for a system...

indeed, that and how actively the repo updates its packages and what its lifecycle is for packages for older releases, thats my biggest concern.

I use the one in elrepo ... and it works, which is why CentOS does not maintain one in extras for CentOS-6 :D
