Florian, Care to explain? I am actualy almost ready to 'test' this same scenario. To my knowlegde VMFS should be 'a cluster filesystem' on its own, right? So what are we missing that will go wrong when using drbd in primary/primary, an IET initiator on both nodes and a multipath from the ESXi hosts towards both (drbd) nodes ...
On a side note I read somewhere that 'multipath' isn't great either and that when de primary path breaks you still need a re-scan of the iSCSI luns, so just using heartbeat and 'migrating' the ip and starting IET initiator on the secondary could be a better solution .... bye, Chris Florian Haas schreef: > I think there are cheaper ways to go insane. > > Florian > > On 03/15/2010 12:26 PM, Michael Schwartzkopff wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I wanted to know if a dual primary DRBD setup, exporting the block devices >> as >> iSCSI targets and multipathing on the initiator side is possible and >> advisable. >> >> Thanks for any enlightening answers. >> >> Greetings, >> > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > drbd-user mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user _______________________________________________ drbd-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user
