Doing some experiments and Reading TFM, I found this:

5.2.2. Advisory Ordering
When the kind=Optional option is specified for an order constraint, the constraint is considered optional and only has an effect when both resources are stopping and/or starting. Any change in state of the first resource you specified has no effect on the second resource you specified.

(From https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Configuring_the_Red_Hat_High_Availability_Add-On_with_Pacemaker/index.html)

This seems to tickle the right area. Adding "kind=Optional" to the gfs2 -> drbd order constraint makes it all work as desired (start-up and shut-down is correctly ordered,

Not really, it allows gfs2 to start even if drbd can't run anywhere.

and bringing the other node out of standby doesn't force a gratuitous restart of the gfs2 filesystem and the vms that rely on it on the already active node).

Is that the correct solution I wonder?

Unlikely

I've filed a bug for this so it doesn't get lost:

   http://bugs.clusterlabs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5214

It may not make the cut for 1.1.12 though since dual masters isn't a
common use case.

Cheers, was hoping I'd just misconfigured things. Surprised that drbd+gfs2 under pacemaker isn't more often used as a low-rent san substitute.

Thanks again for your time.
