Hello list,<br><br>I have downloaded the OSS tar.gz format package of DRBD 8.3 from <a href="http://oss.linbit.com/drbd/">http://oss.linbit.com/drbd/</a> and successfully compiled to rpm on my RHEL 5.2 x86-64 platform. (drbd-km-2.6.18_92.1.22.el5-8.3.0-3.x86_64.rpm and drbd-8.3.0-3.x86_64.rpm).<br>
<br>And i also noticed that Linbit provide a copy of pre-compiled rpm for RHEL 5 at <a href="http://www.linbit.com/support/drbd-8.3.0/rhel5/2.6.18-92.1.22.el5/">http://www.linbit.com/support/drbd-8.3.0/rhel5/2.6.18-92.1.22.el5/</a>.<br>
<br>My question is what is the different , i mean binary bits different from user compiled rpm and Linbit's pre-compiled rpm DRBD package?<br>Are they come from the same source code as well as same patch sets? And are they has the same compile switches/options that i can read from OSS tar.gz source files' configure/make environment?<br>
<br>One customer of my company want to deploy DRBD with Red Hat's HA cluster suite in his production system and want to find out Linbit's software and service model for further descision.<br><br>Regards,<br>Joe<br>
