This just seems to me like a simple case of copying data from machine A to whichever is the master out your B/C drbd configuration (if you are running drbd master/slave). On machine A: rsync -avz --stats --progress /path/to/your/data B_fqdn:/path/to/destination Not really a drbd question. Things to consider: 1. Make sure B and C are properly configured with DRBD and heartbeat for fail over. 2. Test fail overs between B and C. 3. Copy your data with rsync 4. Make sure that the user account space from A is the same as B and C so that all file permissions are correct.
