I have been using drbd 0.7.2 for about a week now, and it has been working very well with 2 devices (/dev/drbd0, /dev/drbd1). Today I tried to add a third device (/dev/drbd2), but I have not been able to get it to work. It complains about /dev/drbd2 (see below). # drbdadm adjust all can not open /dev/drbd2: No such file or directory can not open /dev/drbd2: No such file or directory Command '/sbin/drbdsetup /dev/drbd2 disk /dev/myvg/vol2 internal -1 --on-io-error=detach' terminated with exit code 20 drbdsetup exited with code 20 I noticed that there was no "drbd2" under /dev, so I tried creating one. # ls -l /dev/drbd* brw-rw---- 1 root root 147, 0 Aug 11 11:49 /dev/drbd0 brw-rw---- 1 root root 147, 1 Aug 11 11:49 /dev/drbd1 # mknod /dev/drbd2 b 147 2 # chown root:root /dev/drbd2 ; chmod 660 /dev/drbd2 # ls -l /dev/drbd* brw-rw---- 1 root root 147, 0 Aug 11 11:49 /dev/drbd0 brw-rw---- 1 root root 147, 1 Aug 11 11:49 /dev/drbd1 brw-r--r-- 1 root U60123 147, 2 Aug 12 10:32 /dev/drbd2 # drbdadm adjust all can not open /dev/drbd2: No such device or address can not open /dev/drbd2: No such device or address Command '/sbin/drbdsetup /dev/drbd2 disk /dev/myvg/vol2 internal -1 --on-io-error=detach' terminated with exit code 20 drbdsetup exited with code 20 I get a slightly different error, but still no go. Does anyone have any idea what might be going on? My system info: distro: Gentoo kernel: 2.6.7 (with udev) drbd: 0.7.2 (manual install (not from portage)) -- Michael Haverkamp
