<br>
thank you so much. I saw a reference to that on the pages about
xen and should have realized it would apply to any virtual
environment. Doh!<br>
<br>
Writing to <tt>/dev/drbd/by-res/r1</tt> did it and I now have my
first vm ticking along nicely through DRBD and I'm a very happy
camper.<br>
<br>
Thanks again for the prompt and excellent solution.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>

Hi Paul,
<br>
<br>
What did you configure your VM to use as its disk?
<br>
/dev/VirtualMachines/test2 or /dev/drbd/by-res/r1 (/dev/drbd2)?
<br>
<br>
If you used /dev/VirtualMachines/test2 then that's what's wrong.
your reads and writes are bypassing DRBD. The only thing that
should be using /dev/VirtualMachines/test2 is DRBD, your VM should
write to /dev/drbd/by-res/r1
<br>
<br>
Cheers,
<br>
Simon
