Hello everyone, we are running a nagios monitoring system on a two node drbd cluster in primary/secondary mode for high availability reasons. Now I was told to migrate this cluster from its primary/secondary state to the dual primary mode. Since I've never run drbd in dual primary mode before I'm not sure on how I can approach this task. Since dual primary mode needs a cluster file system like ocfs2 or gfs it looks like I have to rebuild the entire partitions and create new file systems. I also need to change kernel settings in order to support the cluster file system of my choice. My question about this is: Is there anybody who has migrated a secondary/primary drbd cluster into dual primary mode? Are there any experiences that you can share with me or suggestions on how I can approach the migration?
