Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.


Correction, it looks like there is now an updated backport (2:8.3.7-1ubuntu2.2) of drbd8-utils in the official Ubuntu repositories:

Hi Felix, 


I am using DRBD with pacemaker+heartbeat for a HA cluster. There are no mounted filesystems at this time. Below is a copy of the kernel log after I attempted to stop the drbd service:

I am using the DRBD 8.3.7 backport from this repository:

what's using those DRBDs and is it cleanly shut down before the drbd 
service is being stopped? 

Are there filesystems in your block devices? Do they get unmounted in time? 

Are there any incriminating kernel log entries after this slow shutdown? 

Cheers, 
Felix
