Ok! After some reconfiguring I think I have gotten further: ----- /proc/drbd from HOST1: bash-2.05b# hostname openfiler bash-2.05b# cat /proc/drbd version: 0.7.6 (api:77/proto:74) SVN Revision: 1663 build by root@aztec.corp.xinit.com, 2005-03-08 13:59:43 0: cs:Connected st:Primary/Secondary ld:Consistent ns:337785 nr:0 dw:337670 dr:225146 al:0 bm:151 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 bash-2.05b# ----- /proc/drbd from HOST2: bash-2.05b# hostname openfiler2 bash-2.05b# cat /proc/drbd version: 0.7.6 (api:77/proto:74) SVN Revision: 1663 build by root@aztec.corp.xinit.com, 2005-03-08 13:59:43 0: cs:Connected st:Secondary/Primary ld:Consistent ns:0 nr:225116 dw:225116 dr:0 al:0 bm:151 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 bash-2.05b# ---- mount from Host1: bash-2.05b# mount /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw) none on /proc type proc (rw) none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) usbdevfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbdevfs (rw) none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) /dev/drbd0 on /mnt/disk type ext3 (rw) ^^ is the above now a funtioning mirror? Or do I have to mount /dev/drbd0 on the Secondary as well?
