I have a situation where, after a reboot, the volumes that I created under LVM2 do not exist. Here is my configuration.. Kernel version 2.6.16.9 LVM version: 2.01.04 (2005-02-09) Library version: 1.01.04 (2005-08-02) Driver version: 4.5.0 Drbd version 0.7.17 I created a physical volume on /dev/md2 of my hard drive. I then created a volume group called rootvg. I then created several logical volumes, two of which are called drbdpv00 and drbdpv04. In the /dev directory I have device files drbd0 and drbd4 with a major number of 147. My drbd.conf looks like this: resource drbdpv00 { # use the synchronous protocol protocol C; startup { wfc-timeout 5; degr-wfc-timeout 120; } syncer { rate 20M; group 0; } on node1 { device /dev/drbd0; disk /dev/rootvg/drbdpv00; meta-disk /dev/rootvg/drbdmeta[0]; address 192.168.0.171:7790; } on node2 { device /dev/drbd0; disk /dev/rootvg/drbdpv00; meta-disk /dev/rootvg/drbdmeta[0]; address 192.168.0.172:7790; } This should allow /dev/drbd0 and /dev/drbd4 to use actual disk space for creating volumes. Node1 is up and working perfectly. This was an actual working linux cluster before a botched upgrade on node2, thus I had to rebuild it after it became unbootable. On node2 I could not create a physical volume until I unhooked the crossover cable between the two nodes and made node2 primary. I would get a read only error. After making node2 primary, I was able to create the physical volumes on /dev/drbd0 and dev/drbd4 with no problem. I created volume groups and logical volumes under that physical volume. I rebooted node2 and when the machine came back up, the physical volumes were gone. Node2 was back in a secondary state as far as drbd was concerned, which I did expect. When the machine was rebooting, drbd came back up fine. I would appreciate any help you could offer on this, as I am at wits end. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
