Hi all,
I've upgraded an xen+drbd+lvm debian system to squeeze.
The DomUs utilize DRBD-ressources for storage (based on local LV)
Unfortunately the block-drbd helper script provided by drbd8-utils
doesn't seem to work anymore:
root at xena:~# xm create -c /etc/xen/bldlenny32.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/bldlenny32.cfg".
root at xena:~# Error: Device 51714 (vbd) could not be connected. Hotplug
scripts not working.
I can start the DomU if a change the domU cfg
from
disk = [ 'drbd:bldlenny32-disk,xvda2,w', 'drbd:bldlenny32-swap,xvda1,w']
to
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/drbd/by-res/bldlenny32-disk,xvda2,w',
'phy:/dev/drbd/by-res/bldlenny32-swap,xvda1,w']
and of course then having to manually changing the DRBD ressource states
to primary before start:
drbdadm primary bldlenny32-disk bldlenny32-swap
The block-drbd helper script works on an older system with debian/lenny
(+ some parts of older sid)
I also tried the newest block-drbd from the drbd 8.3 git repository,
it is identical to the one in the debian-package.
Does anyone have a working configuration using the drbd: naming scheme?
Installed packages:
