Hi everybody, first things first: 2X dual Xeon connected via Gbe (Intel), each 1Gig Ram, Highmem supp. off, Kernel 2.6.12.2, Raid 10 on 3ware S-ATA controllers. I got a nice little problem which I think is a bit uncommon. I've been using drbd for a while now with reiserfs on top. Yesterday the filesystem suddenly went crazy: Aug 3 09:17:11 test1 kernel: ReiserFS: drbd0: warning: vs-4080: reiserfs_free_block: free_block (drbd0:32939)[dev:blocknr]: bit already cleared Aug 3 09:17:24 test1 kernel: ReiserFS: warning: is_tree_node: node level 1 does not match to the expected one 2 Aug 3 09:17:24 test1 kernel: ReiserFS: drbd0: warning: vs-5150: search_by_key: invalid format found in block 32870. Fsck? Aug 3 09:17:24 test1 kernel: ReiserFS: drbd0: warning: vs-13050: reiserfs_update_sd: i/o failure occurred trying to update [2 2019235 0x0 SD] stat data After this the machine locked up. Fscking it didn't help. Now I thougt I'd try Ext3 and see how it performs. Mkfs stuck. Now I tried to invalidate my one and only resource r0: Machine1: version: 0.7.11 (api:77/proto:74) SVN Revision: 1799 build by pete at test1, 2005-08-03 18:24:38 0: cs:Connected st:Primary/Secondary ld:Consistent ns:7451187 nr:0 dw:6398519 dr:1651619 al:3082 bm:981 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 drbdadm invalidate r0 ioctl(,INVALIDATE,) failed: Operation now in progress Only in 'Connected' cstate possible.

Lets make the primary secondary and vice versa: Machine1: drbdadm secondary r0 cat /proc/drbd version: 0.7.11 (api:77/proto:74) SVN Revision: 1799 build by pete at test1, 2005-08-03 18:24:38 0: cs:Connected st:Secondary/Secondary ld:Consistent ns:7451187 nr:0 dw:6398519 dr:1651619 al:3082 bm:1238 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 drbd0: Primary/Secondary --> Secondary/Secondary Machine2: drbdadm primary r0 cat /proc/drbd version: 0.7.11 (api:77/proto:74) SVN Revision: 1799 build by pete at test2, 2005-07-14 13:14:36 0: cs:Connected st:Primary/Secondary ld:Consistent ns:0 nr:572548 dw:572548 dr:0 al:0 bm:281 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 drbd0: Secondary/Secondary --> Primary/Secondary drbdadm invalidate r0 ioctl(,INVALIDATE,) failed: Operation now in progress Only in 'Connected' cstate possible. Command '/sbin/drbdsetup /dev/drbd0 invalidate' terminated with exit code 20 drbdadm aborting Any ideas ? BTW I would be interested in experiences regarding the filesystem of your choice- I didn't choose ext3 due to aspects of performance and fscking. I had some lockups with XFS. Reiser went well until yesterday although I bonnied pretty much on it. Regards Stephan
