Hi,
with this drbd-9.0 release we made great progress. First to mention,
the comparability with drbd-8.4 was improved a lot. Connecting to 8.4
have either side primary, resync etc, should work now. I.e. all the things
necessary for performing a rolling upgrade.
A lot of time and effort was put into debugging and improving the
two-phase commit protocol implementation. That is the building
block under secondary->primary state transitions as well as attach,
detach, connect and disconnect operations.
Now it seems that it scales to at least 10 nodes. More testing remains
to be done in that area.
On the front of RDMA, performance and testing under load some
issues where fixed as well.
While drbd-9.0.0 is in its BETA-phase, we offer all interested
parties access to repositories for RHEL6, RHEL7 and Ubuntu 14.04
for free.
If you are interested in the beta-program, please drop us
an e-mail at office at linbit.com.
