Hi, I am trying to create a setup where I can read/write to the master node by samba and read-only, again by samba, from the slave at the same time. From what I understand I need to use a shared file system and 8.0 for this. What I'm not clear on is why I need to use this combination. Is it because other journaled file systems (xfs, reiserfs, etc) cannot handle drbd updating the underlying data? Also, why is it the drbd/ocfs2 (for example) combo works? If there are already docs explaining all this, please feel free to just fire off the links to me. Thanks. David Filion
