    <title>Introduction</title>
    <para>The <command>/etc/init.d/drbd</command> script is used
    to start and stop drbd on a system V style init system.</para>
  <para>When using a cluster resource manger such as Pacemaker,
  DRBD should usually <emphasis>not</emphasis> be started by the init system,
  but should typically be exclusively controlled by the cluster manager.
  You should not use, and disable, the init script in this case.
  <command>chmod -x /etc/init.d/drbd</command> has proven most effective for this.
  </para>
  <para>In order to use <command>/etc/init.d/drbd</command>, define a drbd
    configuration. See
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>drbd.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    for details.
