I suggest to not use the same algorithm for csums-alg and verify-alg, so the verify can detect differences which the csums based resnc thought where identical due to identical checksums respective hash colision. I further suggest that you use stronger hash algorithms for both. Like md5 and sha1, or similar. > I try to upgrade our app & database on secondary(node2) , by disconnect and > promote 2 drbd devices to primary and then perform the upgrade, it was fine. > Then I try to roll back the seondary the original version, by drbdadm -- > --discard-my-data connect drbdX.

Does it > matter? Since I've get rid of drbd there. Can you give more detail there? What did you do? Did that manipulate DRBD meta data as well? Did you bypass DRBD at some point during the process? -- : Lars Ellenberg : LINBIT | Your Way to High Availability : DRBD/HA support and consulting http://www.linbit.com DRBD® and LINBIT® are registered trademarks of LINBIT, Austria. __ please don't Cc me, but send to list -- I'm subscribed
