Dear all, yesterday I had to turn off for an hour all our servers (replacement of emergency power generator and simulation of failure). After reboot the main server "lost" all 3 internet interfaces. For that reason DRBD failed to start. After some time I figured out, that aliases for NICs were not loaded (no idea why, but they disappeared from /etc/modprobe.conf). Again reboot network was there but still no DRBD. The output of "service drbd status" is not complete: "service drbd status" drbd driver loaded OK; device status: version: 8.0.16 (api:86/proto:86) GIT-hash: d30881451c988619e243d6294a899139eed1183d build by mockbuild at v20z-x86-64.home.local, 2009-08-22 13:26:57 m:res cs st ds p mounted fstype However "more /proc/drbd" seems OK version: 8.0.16 (api:86/proto:86) GIT-hash: d30881451c988619e243d6294a899139eed1183d build by mockbuild at v20z-x86-64.home.local, 2009-08-22 13:26:57 0: cs:Connected st:Secondary/Secondary ds:UpToDate/UpToDate C r--- ns:0 nr:0 dw:0 dr:0 al:0 bm:0 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 resync: used:0/61 hits:0 misses:0 starving:0 dirty:0 changed:0 act_log: used:0/127 hits:0 misses:0 starving:0 dirty:0 changed:0 I've found out that block file /dev/drbd0 was missing after reboot. I've tried to add the /dev/drbd0 manually with "mknod -m 0660 /dev/drbd0 b 147 0" and restart of drbd but it didn't change the situation. The same results form "service drbd status" After reboot again no /dev/drbd0. As last resort I've tried to regenerate whole DRBD from secondary node. service drbd stop rm -f /dev/drbd0 drbdadm create-md r0 service drbd start Still no /dev/drbd0 and no output from "service drbd status" (only the "cat /prc/drbd" shows now that the drive is synchronizing). I would be very grateful for any help kris
