I have a DRBD installation on two machines running Centos 6.3 and DRBD 8.4.1 I have a single resource 'agalaxy' being synced across these two machines. This resource has two volumes: Volume 0: /dev/drbd0 mounted on /a10data And Volume 1: /dev/drbd1 mounted on /a10. Volume 0 is running Postgres. I did a lot of other activities with DRBD shutdown. However after a while, I found that the contents in the directory /a10data on one of the machines was different (some intermediate level directories were missing), yet DRBD (cat /proc/drbd) reported that the file systems were in sync. Ultimately, I had to re-initialize and resync the volume by invalidating it: Drbdadm invalidate agalaxy/0 Has anyone run into this kind of issue? =================================== For example, on balar-lnx3, the contents of /a10data/db/data/system was: [root at balar-lnx3 system]# ls 12531 12664 12670 12675 12681 12687 12779 12531_fsm 12666 12671 12677 12682 12688 pg_control 12531_vm 12667 12672 12678 12683 12773 pg_filenode.map 12533 12668 12672_fsm 12679 12683_fsm 12775 pg_internal.init 12534 12668_fsm 12672_vm 12679_fsm 12683_vm 12777 pgstat.stat 12662 12668_vm 12674 12679_vm 12685 12778 The contents of /a10/data/db/data/system on balar-lnx was: [root at balar-lnx system]# ls base pg_ident.conf pg_stat_tmp PG_VERSION global pg_multixact pg_subtrans pg_xlog pg_clog pg_notify pg_tblspc postgresql.conf pg_hba.conf pg_serial pg_twophase postmaster.opts [root at balar-lnx system]# The contents of /a10data/db/data/system on balar-lnx3 was actually the contents of /a10data/db/data/system/global on balar-lnx.
