Hi, I'm running a DRBD/HA (Active/Passive using serial cable ) config that seems to be working ok but I have a query on whether what I am seeing is expected behaviour or not. H1 & H2 are 2 identical dell servers running RHEL4, Heartbeat & DRBD. Failover works ok and the disk mounts fine on both servers. As a test I have been pulling the power/ network cables / power off switches etc. My query is around the following. If H1 is active and I pull the network cable H2 takes over fine mounts the disk and all is well. However when I reconnect the network cable into H1, I get an error and at least 1 drbd process shuts down on H1. checking /proc/drbd on H2 now shows Primary/Unknown and on H1 its Unknown/Secondary. I then need to do a failover and restart drbd on both nodes to get back to a Primary/Secondary setup. What I thought should happen would be that DRBD on H1 goes, oh crap, I'm not the main man any more. better sync up with the other primary. I wont go posting configs etc until I find out if this is wrong or not. All info / pointers greatly appreciated.
