You did not share your drbd.conf, but I guess you do not (and with ext3, you do not want to) use dual primary mode. So it's okay and expected to not be able to use the replicating node's data (secondary's data). > I was able to run mkfs on /dev/drbd0 and then mounted it.

I guess you should read the drbd users-guide fundamentals chapter. Especially the chapter on resource roles: http://www.drbd.org/users-guide/s-resource-roles.html Regards Dominik > I got this error: > mkfs.ext3 /dev/drbd0 > mke2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006) > mkfs.ext3: Wrong medium type while trying to determine filesystem size > > mount /dev/drbd0 /home > mount: block device /dev/drbd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only > mount: Wrong medium type > > My /dev/brbd0 is constructed with: > > md8 : active raid1 hdc10[1] hdb10[0] > 215624320 blocks [2/2] [UU] > > # fdisk -l /dev/hdb | grep hdb10 > /dev/hdb10 3558 30401 215624398+ fd Linux raid autodetect > > # fdisk -l /dev/hdc | grep hdc10 > /dev/hdc10 3558 30401 215624398+ fd Linux raid autodetect > > > Could someone tell me what suppose to happen and how to fix this problem? > > Thank you very much. > _______________________________________________ > drbd-user mailing list > drbd-user at lists.linbit.com > http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user >
