Well, I also built drbd-km-2.6.25.16_0.1_default-8.2.6-3.i586.rpm on
OpenSUSE 11.0, on an older secondary that was enlarged with a new RAID.
I generated a RPM and installed it. It installed well and loads.
#### start ####
~: # rcdrbd start
Starting DRBD resources: [ d(r0) /dev/drbd0: Failure: (119) No valid
meta-data signature found.
==> Use 'drbdadm create-md res' to initialize meta-data area. <==
[r0] cmd /sbin/drbdsetup /dev/drbd0 disk /dev/sda1 /dev/sda1 internal
--set-defaults --create-device failed - continuing!
n(r0) ].
#### end ####
OK, now I want to prepare the low level storage. I have a hardware 1,5
TB RAID5 on sda. I created a /dev/sda1 partition (formated with ReiserFS).
when I do:
drbdadm create-md /dev/sda1
I get:
'/dev/sda1' not defined in your config
drbd.conf:
#### start ####
global {
usage-count no;
}
common {
protocol C;
}
resource r0 {
on L113 {
device /dev/drbd0;
disk /dev/sda1;
address 10.9.8.3:7789;
meta-disk internal;
}
on L114 {
device /dev/drbd0;
disk /dev/sda1;
address 10.9.8.4:7789;
meta-disk internal;
}
}
#### end ####
How else do I "define /dev/sda1"?
:-)
