Pacemaker will. But this is probably not gonna solve your problem as the
fact who is primary and who secondary
(master/slave role in pacemaker-terms) doesn't say anything about from
which of the disks which part of the
data is being taken. Primary just means that the drbd-device is being
accessed from that side (btw. can be on both
sides provided you are using a filesystem that can cope with that).
Although it is not recommended drbd can be configured to automatically
recover - by deletion of the changes on
one side done during split-brain-phase.
