Hi list, i have to add a new DRBD-volume to our production cluster. This are the steps I would do: - create a new partition on both cluster nodes (fdisk) - reboot both machines, so the kernel knows about the new partitions - edit the /etc/drbd.conf and add the new resource (both nodes) - create internal metadata with drbdadm create-md - bringing the thing up with drbdadm up (both nodes?) - doing the initial sync with drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer primary - create a filesystem on the device - use it! Did I miss something? Will I have to create new special device files in /dev/ with mknod and if so, what is the correct command for this?
