Hi, i had setup a Node with DRBD und Heartbeat in a Standalone Setup, because the other Node was not ready to use. Setup: - 2x 600GB Partions would be used as ressource data1 and data2. The Standalone Node is mounted and configured as resource data2 with ext4 filesystem. On data2 exists a lot of files. Ressource data1 was not formated and not used in DRBD Configuration yet. All works fine. After a few days the second Node becomes ready. The 2nd Node got also 2x 600 GB Partitions. First i setup the Resource data1 on the second Node as Primary. The initial setup (sync) was done in 1 hour 30 minutes with a configured rate 100M. All fine. cat /proc/drbd version: 8.3.13 (api:88/proto:86-96) GIT-hash: 83ca112086600faacab2f157bc5a9324f7bd7f77 build by root at sighted, 2012-10-09 12:47:51 0: cs:SyncSource ro:Secondary/Primary ds:UpToDate/Inconsistent C r----- ns:139209584 nr:9969700 dw:19939436 dr:139211637 al:0 bm:8775 lo:43 pe:36 ua:45 ap:0 ep:1 wo:b oos:481534196 [===>................] sync'ed: 23.4% (470248/613192)M finish: 1:16:21 speed: 105,108 (101,932) K/sec 1: cs:Connected ro:Primary/Secondary ds:UpToDate/Diskless C r----- ns:0 nr:0 dw:597294168 dr:52092731 al:222 bm:0 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 ep:1 wo:b oos:629126364 Both Nodes are directly connected only for DRBD and Heartbeat. On the First Node i started the DRBD sync as primary to the 2nd Node. But the initial sync from Primary (with filesystem and data on disk) was very slow. cat /proc/drbd version: 8.3.13 (api:88/proto:86-96) GIT-hash: 83ca112086600faacab2f157bc5a9324f7bd7f77 build by root at sighted, 2012-10-09 12:47:51 0: cs:Connected ro:Secondary/Primary ds:UpToDate/UpToDate C r----- ns:620739192 nr:9969700 dw:19939436 dr:620741097 al:0 bm:38399 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 ep:1 wo:b oos:0 1: cs:SyncSource ro:Primary/Secondary ds:UpToDate/Inconsistent C r----- ns:2223984 nr:0 dw:598733424 dr:53982399 al:551 bm:125 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 ep:1 wo:b oos:626937968 [>....................] sync'ed: 0.4% (612244/614380)M finish: 115:14:45 speed: 1,500 (1,480) K/sec The initial sync between two unformated and not mounted Partions was finished in 1h 30m, but the initial sync beween with a mounted Disk runs 120 hours?
