This is not what DRBD is supposed to do. I'll assume your negative answer was in reply to my mention of "filesystem". Joining your explanation at the top with the below paragraph, I think it is *not* my solution, only because secondary can't be mounted, right? >> Suppose this: you login to server1 and "echo SOMETHING > ~/TEST". >> Logout and immediately login to server2.

Even having server1 exporting to server2 and/or vice-versa is not applicable. -- - Nuno Tavares http://nthq.cjb.net/
