Ok, in which case, the documentation isn't clear ! http://www.drbd.org/users-guide/s-first-time-up.html That page follows on from a page where an r0 config example is defined, thus it should make either continue using r0 in the example (or it should put "resource" in italics or something to show its not part of the command !).

Try sudo drbdadm create-md r0 You've defined the resource as r0, so tell drdb to create r0...

All of them generate the stupid error message above that doesn't tell me anything. The nearest thing I've found to an answer on Google is a smug post in 2009 from someone who told someone else "Well, "resource" is not defined in your config, but "r0" is. Try that instead :)" .... well that's a silly answer that doesn't tell me anything either ! So please, could someone tell me what I should be doing to make this work. And yes, uname -n does return "XXX-vm02-bk01" and "XXX-vm02-bk01". Thank you !
