[drbd-mc] Newbie question

[Mervini, Joseph A]

Hi,

I am new to DRDB so there is an awful lot I need to learn.

I've seen this question posed in a different context in older posts but did not see a definitive answer. During initialization (if that is what is happening) is there some type of identifier that tells DRBD that a 2 devices are member of the same resource? In other words does DRBD write anything to the shared devices beyond just replication data?

Thanks in advance.

Joe
