[DRBD-user] Failed to create meta-data for DRBD volume

[Daniel Ulman]

Hi Gabor,

You are right.

I was doing a lot of tests to try to make LINSTOR work.
The storage pool pve/drbdpool was mentioned in the original message.

In the message where I put the lvs output, the storage pool is another.

Currently the output of the command:

linstor sp l, is:

Hi Daniel,

I am still a bit confused. You said that you created the thin pool called "pve/drbdpool" (copied from your first mail from the 'storage-pool create ...' command), but that thin pool does not exist in the shown "lvs" output. 

I believe that the thin pool once existed (at least when the "storage-pool create" command was executed as that command should also check the existence of the given pool). 

Additionally, as said in the other mails, ErrorReports usually give more details about what happened, also what the executed external command is complaining about. 

Best regards,
Gabor
