Hello, I'm very new to drbd, and I have been going over the documentation and mailing list archives the past few days to help me get started. But I've reached a point were I need some help. I think what I am trying to accomplish should be fairly simple. I have two nodes and I'd like to replicate the '/var/log' file system between the two. I have drbd compiled and installed (I believe correctly), and I'm running in to a couple of problems... 1. On one node when I run 'drbdadm up all' I get the following error (I did run the mknod command as the documentation specifies): can not open /dev/drbd0: No such device or address Command '/sbin/drbdsetup /dev/drbd0 disk /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00_varlog internal -1 --on-io-error=detach' terminated with exit code 20 2. On the other node when I run 'drbdadm up all' I get the following error: Lower device (/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-varlog) is already mounted Command '/sbin/drbdsetup /dev/drbd0 disk /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-varlog internal -1 --on-io-error=detach' terminated with exit code 20 I understand that the file system cannot be mounted when drbd tries to use it, but I'm not sure how to configure this to work correctly. Is there a way to get drbd to mount the file system on startup? I am running... RedHat EL 4 heartbeat 2.0.2-1 drbd 0.7.13 drbd.conf (I only changed the host information, and left everything else default): on left_host { device /dev/drbd0; disk /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-varlog; address 10.10.10.11:7788; meta-disk internal; } on right_host { device /dev/drbd0; disk /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00_varlog; address 10.10.10.12:7788; meta-disk internal; } Your friendly neighborhood SA, phiLLip -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
