Hi All,

I am new to DRBD and have been unable to run a full setup at the moment. I am getting a kernel panic whenever the auto sync start from the Up2date node (whenever I do resource up or drbd restart it panics)...

I am running DRBD on LVM2 device with to be volume and metadata both on different LVs.

Running VMs - Configuration below.

Linux OracleLinuxVM1 2.6.32-71.el6.i686 #1 SMP Wed Dec 15 09:50:18 EST 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I have created the kernel module for DRBD as per instructions on the DRBD.org and the module

I am not too sure how to resolve this, any assistance is appreciated.
