With DRBD 0.6.X, whenever a Primary goes down, there has to be a full sync. Even if *you* know that nothing, or only "little", was changed, DRBD has no way to know that. It only knows that the primary vanished unexpectedly, and concludes it needs to sync... > ....I think this would explain > why my data is missing and my server is down.... I still don't understand what you mean with "my data is missing"... Please give more detail about what you are doing, and what you expect to happen, and where "real world" does not meet your expectations. > How destructive will it be if I kill the resync? Not destructive at all... Only next time the nodes connect, the full sync will start over from the very beginning.
