Hi,

I have been trying to get my production servers back up and running. I am 
using version 8.0rc1. During boot up, the two nodes ended up in a split brain 
due to an error in my config. Node1 has the good data. Node2 has the stale 
data. I want to connect them and have them syncronize from node1 to node2.
Which node do I run 'drbdadm -- --discard-my-data connect'?

The man page says: "By passing this option you make a node to sync target 
immediatly after sucessfull connect."

So, is the man page saying I want to run the command on node2 so it becomes 
the sync target?

Thanks,
Tom
