lvcreate -n drbdlv1 -L 50M drbdtest<br><br>I faced 2 problems on <b>other primary side</b>,<br><br>1. drbdlv1 has attributes as &#39;-wi---&#39; and not &#39;-wi-a-&#39;.I need to do &#39;lvchange&#39; here to activate it.<br>
    Is there any way that  I can maintain their active state here?<br><br>2. PV,VG and LV are appears quite late,after 3-4 minutes.Why is this much delay,operation being synchronous?<br>---------------------------------<br>
