<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi Etienne</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Quite simple, after setting up the resources
in /etc/drbd.conf (you can already add the entries for rthe second node
there), load the module with modprobe drbd, create the metadata with
drbdadm create-md all, then start up the resources with drbdadm up all,
then promote it with drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer primary all. Then
you can go ahead and use the DRBD-devices in any way needed.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">When the other node is available, copy
over the config, create metadata on slave, start up drbd, It should start
to sync immediately after that.<br>

<br><tt><font size=2>Hello List,<br>
<br>
I have one machine at the moment, and will receive another machine in a
<br>
month. The issue is, I would like DRBD setup on the machine so that when
<br>
the other one arrives I can connect them and have the second machine up
<br>
in no time.<br>
<br>
How would you configure this, ie make DRBD ignore its peer until I have
<br>
the second machine.<br>
<br>
Thank You,<br>
Etienne Pretorius<br>
