[DRBD-user] Performance problem on drbd8 2-node cluster

[Marco Marino]

Thank you Gianni.
I tried to ask on the mailing list first because if I try to write on the
backing device, probably I need to resync drbd device when the cluster goes
up again.
Anyway, I will send tests on /dev/sdb as soon as possible.
Thank you
