[DRBD-user] Question: how to avoid full resync

[Ziv Gabel]

Hi Eli,

This is a guess, but  what is your sync rate ?
the default is usually too low so it might look like it's re syncing.
try to put:

        syncer {
                rate 40M;
        }

inside your resource in the drbd.conf file and than test again


Best regards,
Ziv Gabel
