Hi,
I've been reading a lot of documentation and managed to get myself a bit
confused so wondered if some kind sole would just point me in the
correct direction
I'm trying to setup a two node cluster with the idea of if node1 writes
to /home the file can be accessed on node2 but I want both nodes to have
the ability to write to the device at the same time. I've setup a drbd
device and set allow-two-primaries; in /etc/drbd.conf. On both nodes
I've run
drbdadm primary all
to set to primary
I then mounted /home on both nodes (rw) and if I touch a file on one
node it doesn't appear on the other.
As such can someone confirm
Is this even possible with drbd handling the file locking for me or do I
have to look at setting up GFS to get this functionality. Googling has
chucked up a bit but I've ended up confused and going around in circle
Thanks
Rus
