(or 2.4 (another > recommendation please)) During testing here, I had a test machine using ReiserFS on my DRBD device. I set up NFS to share that filesystem and I mounted it on another machine. I then started bonnie++ benchmark on it. ReiserFS produced a lot of errors and prevented access to the filesystem completely, even after I stopped the benchmark (I can't recall what the errors were - this was a few months ago). The only way to fix it was to restart the DRBD machine. I tried the same thing with ext3, and although the machine slowed down considerably (as you might expect) I was still able to access the filesystem. Needless to say, our DRBD setup uses ext3. If anyone is going to try to replicate this problem, I was using Debian Woody and kernel 2.4.26. We're using a 2.4 kernel (2.4.27) in our setup, mainly because its been well tested and partly because I don't see the need to upgrade to 2.6 just yet. -- James Doherty Zeald.com Network Operations Ph: +64 9 415 7575, Fax: +64 9 443 9794 Web: http://www.zeald.com
