Thanks a lot !

I didn't find it explicitly in the documentation. Anyway I just did a first try to make sure that drbd used dolphin interconnect with this parameter, it's not a performance test but I found those results :

1 Hard drive : SSD Intel X25-E
1 Network card : NetXtreme BCM5722
1 Dolphin interconnect : DXH510

Without dolphin interconnect
--------------------------------
[root at srv01 ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/u99/test.txt count=1000000 bs=8192
1000000+0 records in
1000000+0 records out
8192000000 bytes (8.2 GB) copied, 72.4688 seconds, 113 MB/s

With dolphin interconnect
--------------------------------
[root at srv01 ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/u99/test.txt count=1000000 bs=8192
1000000+0 records in
1000000+0 records out
8192000000 bytes (8.2 GB) copied, 47.4057 seconds, 173 MB/s

X25-E without DRBD
--------------------------------
[root at srv01 u99]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/u99/test.txt count=1000000 bs=8192
1000000+0 records in
1000000+0 records out
8192000000 bytes (8.2 GB) copied, 33.4939 seconds, 245 MB/s

Thanks again for your help, I can start my tests with dolphin now ;-)

Greg,

do you have your DX and SuperSockets setup completed to the point that
you achieve transparent failover between Ethernet and SuperSockets for a
connection between 10.0.0.11 and 10.0.0.12?

If so, you can simply change

address    10.0.0.11:7778;

to

address sci 10.0.0.11:7778;

and DRBD will replicate over SuperSockets.

Cheers,
Florian
