Hi, I'am trying to use DRBD with XEN 3.0, the xen kernel is an 2.6.12.6 and i am using DRBD 0.7.14. The primary node is an opensuse 10 linux (not virtualized). The 2 volumes are LVM logical volumes with internal metadatas, there size is 54G. The secondary node is an opensuse 10 also but running over xen domain-0. When i setup drbd, synchronisation starts, but the whole system just reboots a few seconds after. I don't know if the problem is xen or drbd related ? Unfornately I have no traces on the xen node. I set "ecbo 60 > /proc/sys/kernel/panic", but it doesn't seem to be a kernel panic, but a "xen" panic. Please help. - - - syncer { # Limit the bandwith used by the resynchronisation process. # default unit is KB/sec; optional suffixes K,M,G are allowed # rate 4M; # All devices in one group are resynchronized parallel. # Resychronisation of groups is serialized in ascending order. # Put DRBD resources which are on different physical disks in one group. # Put DRBD resources on one physical disk in different groups. # group 1; # Configures the size of the active set.
