Ext2/ext3 file systems can't run in Primary/Primary configurations, (unless you use CLVM and allow 1 node at a time access to the LV containing the ext2/ext3 file system). Use GFS or OCFS if you need simultaneous file system access from both nodes and make sure your application can work on it and you know what you are getting into first! Please plan out your DRBD implementation VERY carefully as it is very hard to fix it after the fact. Especially when you are talking about how it should be layered (lvm over drbd, drbd over lvm etc). I advise keeping meta-data in a separate volume, so drbd can be added or removed from a layer after implementation with no reconfiguration of the storage. -Ross ______________________________________________________________________ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
