I love being able to answer my own questions. But I'm not sure of why this worked and the original one didn't. When I change meta-disk from /dev/sda2[0] to /dev/sda2[1] it worked. Every sample that I have seen shows an index of 0. The size of the /dev/sda2 partition is 740mb which should be able to handle 5 or so partitions (even though I will only use 1). Any comments on as to if this is right or wrong please let me know.

We have a set of active servers that we need to start mirroring the data. We added a new drive for the purposes of creating the DRBD partition. The primary is full so I can't use meta-disk internal. I am trying to use the device based meta-disk on servera { device /dev/drbd0; disk /dev/sdb1; address 10.254.254.22:7790; meta-disk /dev/sdb2[0]; } -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
