I'm setting up a DRBD on a 2 node HA cluster. The DRBD is configured and appears to be running as expected. After the resync completed I created an ext3 filesystem on my primary node and mounted /dev/drbd1. It's not clear to me that this is allowed but I tried to mount the file system on my secondary node (read-only) and the mount fails. Should I be able to do this? Thank you. root at skunk:~# mount /dev/drbd1 /drbdfs root at skunk:~# df -k /drbdfs Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/drbd1 2518072 98408 2292760 5% /drbdfs root at badger:~# mount -r /dev/drbd1 /drbdfs mount: you must specify the filesystem type root at badger:~# mount -t ext3 -o ro /dev/drbd1 /drbdfs mount: Wrong medium type /etc/drbd.conf: global { usage-count yes; } common { protocol C; } resource r0 { on skunk { device /dev/drbd1; disk /dev/sda6; address 192.168.254.101:7789; meta-disk internal; } on badger { device /dev/drbd1; disk /dev/sda6; address 192.168.254.100:7789; meta-disk internal; } } root at skunk:~# cat /proc/drbd version: 8.0.11 (api:86/proto:86) GIT-hash: b3fe2bdfd3b9f7c2f923186883eb9e2a0d3a5b1b build by phil at mescal, 2008-02-12 11:56:43 1: cs:Connected st:Primary/Secondary ds:UpToDate/UpToDate C r--- ns:2653752 nr:0 dw:115632 dr:2538249 al:44 bm:155 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 resync: used:0/31 hits:158479 misses:155 starving:0 dirty:0 changed:155 act_log: used:0/127 hits:28864 misses:55 starving:0 dirty:11 changed:44 root at badger:~# cat /proc/drbd version: 8.0.11 (api:86/proto:86) GIT-hash: b3fe2bdfd3b9f7c2f923186883eb9e2a0d3a5b1b build by phil at mescal, 2008-02-12 11:56:43 1: cs:Connected st:Secondary/Primary ds:UpToDate/UpToDate C r--- ns:0 nr:0 dw:0 dr:0 al:0 bm:0 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 resync: used:0/31 hits:0 misses:0 starving:0 dirty:0 changed:0 act_log: used:0/127 hits:0 misses:0 starving:0 dirty:0 changed:0
