Hello!

I have DRBD 8.2.6 up and working on my two CentOS 32-bit servers. Now I
am trying to add a second resource on the machines, I am getting this error:

/etc/drbd.conf:57: conflicting use of IP 'a.b.c.d:7789' ...
/etc/drbd.conf:31: IP 'a.b.c.d:7789' first used here.



Here is my (sanitized) config file:

resource datavol {
 handlers {
  pri-on-incon-degr "echo 'DRBD: primary requested but inconsistent!' |
wall; /etc/init.d/heartbeat stop";
  pri-lost-after-sb "echo 'DRBD: primary requested but lost!' | wall;
/etc/init.d/heartbeat stop";
 }

  on host1 {
    device    /dev/drbd1;
    disk      /dev/sda5;
    address a.b.c.d:7789;
    meta-disk internal;
  }
  on host2 {
    device    /dev/drbd1;
    disk      /dev/sda5;
    address   a.b.c.e:7789;
  }

  startup {
   degr-wfc-timeout 30; #2m timeout
  }

  disk {
   on-io-error detach;
  }
}

resource datavol {
 handlers {
  pri-on-incon-degr "echo 'DRBD: primary requested but inconsistent!' |
wall; /etc/init.d/heartbeat stop";
  pri-lost-after-sb "echo 'DRBD: primary requested but lost!' | wall;
/etc/init.d/heartbeat stop";
 }

  on host1 {
    device    /dev/drbd5;
    disk      /dev/loop1;
    address a.b.c.d:7789;
    meta-disk internal;
  }
  on host2 {
    device    /dev/drbd5;
    disk      /dev/loop1;
    address   a.b.c.e:7789;
    meta-disk internal;
 }
}


If I leave the 'address' lines off the second resource, I get a 'missing
address' error. Any thoughts?
