You may wish to have a look at the timeout values in the DRBD.conf. They probably are on the low side for your network thus causing DRBD think you have connection outages where in fact it just has latency. ping-timeout, connect-int, timeout are the the variables to look at. Default Values are optimised for wired networks.

DRBD Proxy could be a solution, but it is not possible for today. I am thinking of trying DRBD with protocol A, but currently I am not able to test on my environment as it is in production. I will have maintenance window on the weekend. Do you think it can help? If yes, may you suggest values for tcp send buffer? Thanks in advance.

DRBD is designed for high speed/low latency environments, and has a fair bit of attention paid to fault detection and recovery. If it sees a network fault, even a short one, it has to assume the link has failed and recovery is needed. This does not lend itself well to use on slow/error prone networks. Is it possible to use a wired connection for the DRBD replication? If not, I would suggest looking at DRBD Proxy instead, as it is designed to run over slow/unstable links, but it is asynchronous, so be advised that consistency is not always guaranteed. _______________________________________________ drbd-user mailing list drbd-user at lists.linbit.com http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
