Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.


Heiko,
whhich machine crashes? Primary only, both?
I think it is primary but only in case xen VM is running on top of DRBD. You
can prevent crashes by disabling TOE. Or use DRBD 8.3.2, AFAIK there should
be a parameter that should help in such setups.
Check older posts in this list.
