Betreff: AW: [DRBD-user] Failure: (114) Lower device is already claimed


Hi all,
I am new to drbd. I wanted to set up a test
environment. However, During the configuration, I got
this error :

[root at redhatA ~]# drbdadm up all
Failure: (114) Lower device is already claimed. This
usually means it is mounted.
Command 'drbdsetup /dev/drbd0 disk
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
flexible --set-defaults --create-device
--on-io-error=detach' terminated with exit code 10

The /etc/drbd.conf is 
[root at redhatA ~]# cat  /etc/drbd.conf
# drbd.conf 

resource testResource {

  protocol C;
  
  startup {
     wfc-timeout  300;
    degr-wfc-timeout 120;    # 2 minutes.
  }

  disk {
    on-io-error   detach;
  }

  net {
    }

  syncer {
    rate 10M;

    

    al-extents 257;
  }

  on redhatA {
    device     /dev/drbd0;
    disk       /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00;
    address    192.168.10.19:7788;
    meta-disk  internal;

  }

  on redhatB {
    device     /dev/drbd0;
    disk       /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00;
    address    192.168.10.20:7788;
    meta-disk  internal;
  }
}

[Florian]
looks as if your /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 is already mounted... try editing /etc/fstab and setting noauto flag to prevent it from being mounted on startup.
Then umount the device and try to drbdadm up all.

Florian


Is there anything wrong with my configuration file?
Thank you very much
Best Regards,
Hien
