Fix: http://git.drbd.org/gitweb.cgi?p=drbd-8.4.git;a=commitdiff;h=c4956f2 which will catch the IO error, implicitly set the things given as work around above, and retry with those flags disabled. Though I recommend to stay away from 8.4.0 in production for now, at least if you use its main feature (multiple volumes per connection), it shows some serious misbehavior still. Once 8.4.1 is released, that may be better, but even what is tagged as 8.4.1rc1 is known to be broken. > in this case as I can't use LVM and must keep RHEL6 ? > I only want to replicate my database directory (active/passive) which sould > have been the logical volume and not the full disk. Go with 8.3.12 please. -- : Lars Ellenberg : LINBIT | Your Way to High Availability : DRBD/HA support and consulting http://www.linbit.com
