There's something wierd happenning here ... at least to me. If you just rebooted one of the servers it should not happen a SPLIT BRAIN but just a state change. What i see from your logs is exactly what happened to me that i solved by changing the sb0 value to discard-younger-primary. Are you sure that both drbd has been started with this option enabled? i see that the after-sb-0pri just control the split brain when both of the nodes are secondary, check what's the situation in your case cause maybe you have one node that is actually primary when the split brain occurs ... in this case the beahviour is controlled by after-sb-1pri and next by after-sb-2pri that in your case are "consensus" then "disconnect" == StandAlone. just my 2 cents bye Francesco David wrote: > > Before the reboot, the two systems see each other and are in sync. > When I try to start drbd on hydrogen (who was master) after rebooting > it I get > hydrogen:~ # service drbd start > Starting DRBD resources: [ d0 s0 n0 ]. > .......... > *************************************************************** > DRBD's startup script waits for the peer node(s) to appear. > - In case this node was already a degraded cluster before the > reboot the timeout is 0 seconds.
