Hey Everyone, I'm sorry to bring up such an old thread: http://lists.linbit.com/pipermail/drbd-user/2004-April/000485.html But I'm trying to achieve the same thing, and I'm wondering if this is at all possible since this was posted back in 2004. I have a 2-node setup in Primary-Secondary mode. LVM2 sits on top of DRBD. Now due to the enormous performance penalty incurred when taking an LVM snapshot of an active LV, I was wondering if it's possible to take the snapshot on the secondary node only for backup purposes, while leaving the primary untouched. I wouldn't care about the performance hit to the secondary, I'm only concerned with the data being "consistent", and not necessarily "clean". Your help would be appreciated. hany -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
