Greetings everyone, in the wake of the DRBD 8.4 release allow me to announce a new version of the DRBD User's Guide. It is available from the usual location, http://www.drbd.org/users-guide If you are looking for a PDF, that too can be downloaded from the usual place: http://www.linbit.com/en/education/tech-guides/drbd-user-s-guide/ Please note that the new release is a departure from earlier releases in that it always assumes you are in fact using the DRBD 8.4 release. For those migrating to 8.4 from earlier releases, the User's Guide has gained a "Recent Changes" appendix, which I would highly recommend to read: http://www.drbd.org/users-guide/ap-recent-changes.html For users of earlier DRBD versions, the old contents of the users guide have been preserved at: http://www.drbd.org/users-guide-legacy The new version has dropped the chapters on Heartbeat R1 compatible configurations, and configurations manipulating the CIB directly like you had to do in Heartbeat 2. At this point, everyone should really be using Pacemaker (whether on Heartbeat or Corosync). As for new additions, we finally have information on how to manage DRBD-backed LVM and OCFS2 with Pacemaker, variable-rate synchronization, and others. There are over 150 other changes all over the place. I would also like to add that the User's Guide has been completely converted from the mighty arcane DocBook XML to the much more accessible text-based AsciiDoc format. The documentation sources are available from the Git repository at the following URL: git://git.drbd.org/drbd-documentation.git Please take a look at the updated README if you are interested in contributing to the documentation (which is always much, much appreciated). Shout-out goes to new contributors Andreas Grünbacher, Brian Hellman and Stefanie Edgar. Thanks a lot! Cheers, Florian -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
