Hi,

I'm sorry, but I'm not , that DRBD-guru.
Would you be so kind to ask your next questions directely to the DRBD-User-mailing-list?
If you do so, much more people would read your questions and you would maybe already have an answer.

So I'll try to answer your questions short.
Unfortunately I do not know a lot about your configuration...so I can only speculate...

First mail: 	1.) drbdadm create-md resourcename looks good. You're coming from DRBD 0.7, so maybe you already have meta-data and creating new results in an error.
		2.) I do not know exactly, maybe Lars can answer this ;)  I only know, that you must have this.
		3.) For an existing system you don't need to create meta-data, because you already have meta-data. For a new system you create meta-data with the command above.
Second mail:	1.) You can find dopd in /usr/lib/heartbeat.
		2.) Dunno
		3.) I never used 0.7, so I have to delegate this question to the list, too.


Please do not answer only to me, rather to drbd-user at lists.linbit.com

Thanks
Florian
