Please provide any additional information below.

drbdsetup knows pause-sync and resume-sync to pause and resume drbd re-sync. it 
would be great to have a ganeti command to temporarily stop sync activity of 
one or all instance disks. this would be helpful if you create a brunch of 
instances and and disk i/o gets painful slow because of the drbd syncs running. 
with this commands available you could pause the sync until you've done you 
work and resume it later. also running one sync after another (e.g. started via 
at(1)) may improve i/o performance because not all syncs running at once.
