That sounds encouraging. Not having to compile will mean I don't have to locate all the dependencies. "UEK2 shipped with DRBD." How would I check? I have no need for dual-primary and I can't see how OCFS2 can even tell if the underlying block device is dual-primary or single-primary. I believe Eduardo was using dual-primary. I simply need to do a warm-failover (manual) in the event of a disaster. _______________________________________________ drbd-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user
