["in the file system on the drbd" drbd is NOT a file system...] this is most likely not a problem of drbd, but may be a problem of your hardware (e.g. bits flipflopping on DMA access, or bad memory; I have seen both numerous times) or kernel version (e.g. the infamous bio_clone bug...) > 2. is it a regular process to do an fsck after deleting a lot of files > in the drbd filesystem? no. -- : Lars Ellenberg Tel +43-1-8178292-0 : : LINBIT Information Technologies GmbH Fax +43-1-8178292-82 : : Schoenbrunner Str. 244, A-1120 Vienna/Europe http://www.linbit.com : __ please use the "List-Reply" function of your email client.
