[DRBD-user] Cold-Standby (Possible Amount of Asynchronity with DRDB)

[Alexander Menk]

Hello,

I am very new to DRDB and have - as I think - a very uncommon setup in
mind:

Basically it is a "really-cold-standby" fail over setup.

There are two servers (DRDB master: A, DRDB slave: B), during the
daytime B is offline.

Now, after working hours B is switched on. Can DRDB now help me to
synchronize the whole stuff off the day to server B.

I appreciate your hints and comments. 

Regards,

Alexander
