Hi, We have configured /etc/drbd.conf and when the drbd startup script is called this is the error that it reports: /etc/init.d/drbd start Starting DRBD resources: can not open /dev/drbd0: No such file or directory [ d0 can not open /dev/drbd0: No such file or directory cmd /sbin/drbdsetup /dev/drbd0 disk /dev/sda5 internal -1 --on-io-error=detach failed!
