Hi, I'd like to migrate my entire /home directory to the /dev/drbd0 device on my primary node. I'd very much appreciate advice regarding the bootup, mounting, fsck, unmounting and shutdown order and procedure. What I have so far (fully functional drbd cluster without heartbeat, I don't need it): bootup (network runnlevel): load module start drbd via init script declare primary via script manually mount /dev/drbd0 on primary node shutdown: unmount /dev/drbd0 stop drbd via init script Everything works like a charm. Question: How can I integrate the /dev/drbd0 --> /home mount-point in the standard Redhat FC4/Gentoo bootup routine? Since I am booting into a X11 runnlevel (gdm) I do require the /home mountpoint to be available at that time, should I add an fstab entry or proceed otherwise? Same question applies for shutdown. I'd really like to safely automate the fsck.ext3 routine as well and do not want to ruin my filesystem during shutdown. Thanks a lot, Gernot
