Hold it. The contents of /dev/ are not usually part of a local file
system these days. They're usually 'udev' provided, at least on Linux,
and get auto-regenerated and mounted as a special type of file system
at boot time.

You mean /dev/ of dom0's?
I don't want to sync dom0s, but domUs only.
Probably somehow: drbd0 => xvda, where drdb0
is a sync of /dev/vg0/dom1vda at one machine
and /dev/vg1/dom1va at the second.
