Thanks for your reply. I installed ubuntu server and configured drbd there using the same fibre disks and surprise it works! I then built another fibre raid disk and on ubuntu is fine; on openfiler 64 bit I get this: Jan 30 09:31:53 filer1 kernel: drbd1: disk( Diskless -> Attaching ) Jan 30 09:31:53 filer1 kernel: drbd1: Starting worker thread (from cqueue [4561]) Jan 30 09:31:53 filer1 kernel: drbd1: No usable activity log found.
