Hello list, i have found an old tread about our problem back from April and the last message from October (at the end of the email, so sorry for top posting) with a hint to our setup. The setup: cluster with 2 nodes and 2 storages - Stor1 and Stor2 (part of the cluster = 4 nodes total) several LVM volumes replicated via DRBD (8.3.2) in active/active and exported via IET as blockio then imported from all cluster members (including the storages) from both storages at the same time and multipath used in multibus mode from all. The problem: Not tested with other DRBD versions, but at least with different kernels the results are the same. When cman is stopped on one/any of the storages i get in the logs for both of them: "block drbd0: istiod1[2739] Concurrent local write detected! [DISCARD L] new: 0s +1024; pending: 0s +1024" it is always for drbd0 (actively used from all active nodes) and always for 0s +1024 My guess is that this is caused from multipath checking for the disk being alive, but if so it should also happen when cman is running or for other volumes too not? P.S. please CC me as i am not subscribed to the list ------------ the last message in the tread -------------------------- Gennadiy, I realize it's been a while since this issue was discussed last, but we're still trying to hunt this down. I realize this is asking a lot, but do you happen to still have the drbd.conf available from back in April? It was unfortunately never posted in the thread. Specifically, I'm curious as to whether you were using dual-Primary mode at the time (allow-two-primaries). Thanks!
