Hi there,

 

I am involved in the aftermath of a split brain event (drbd 8.3.8). log
files have given us several entries for drbd_sync_handshakes:

The Cluster consists of 2 nodes (san01 und san02) with two block devices
(drbd01 und drbd02) running in dual primary with OCFS2.

 

Analyzing Generation Identifiers oft he first handshake:

·         Current UUIDs (1.-4.) differ due to split brainsituation.

·          BitMap UUIDs (1.-4.) are nearly identical. Only the last digit
differs from A-D. First Historical UUIDs (1.-4.) with drbd1 are identical
but differ for block drbd0. Again only the last digit (2 vs 3).

·         Second Historical UUID (1.-4.) for both block-Devices are
identical meaning both devices have the same data set, or?

 

Questions:

·         Reason and meaning for differing last digit UUIDs are unknown. No
information in the doc.

·         How can I see when the data sets were sync for the last time?

·         Meaning of values for flags fe 0 or 2?

·         Is it possible to decide which resource (drbd0 or drbd1) was
primary by comparing UUIDs?

Aprecciating your help.
