I can merely tell that there is a problem. I'd be interested to learn what the actual state of the system was at the time wrt. your LVs. But David's call sounds pretty close. To drive this point home: You cannot just put some DRBD metadata around your LVs and let something sync. You must actually *mount the DRBD instead of the backing device*. As for the other confusion: A Primary does not implicitly require its local disk to be UpToDate. For that matter, it doesn't even need it to be attached (or built into your box =). However, the Primary *must* have access to UpToDate data, and if that's not its local backing device, it must be Connected to its peer and the peer's disk must be UpToDate. Think of it as DRBD's "awesome mode". ;-) Cheers, Felix
