[DRBD-user] Synced or not?

[Cameron Smith]

Still a little fuzzy about where my data can go in relation to drbd.

My lower level is:
/dev/sda2 /data

my drbd device is:
/dev/drbd1

The docs say not to access the lower level device after drbd is running so
where do I put my files and data?
If it's actually on the drbd1 device how to I access that? I cannot mount it
like a partition using mount.

My config still looks like:

global {
  usage-count yes;
}
common {
  protocol C;
}
resource r0 {
  on clst01.example.net {
    device    /dev/drbd1;
    disk      /dev/sda2;
    address   10.233.2.71:7789;
    meta-disk /dev/sda6[0];
  }
  on clst02.example.net {
    device    /dev/drbd1;
    disk      /dev/sda2;
    address   10.233.2.72:7789;
    meta-disk /dev/sda6[0];
  }
}


Thanks
Cameron
