Hi Felix.

Tank you very much to sharing your point of view, so it seams that the temporary solution I took it will be a permanent solution. Besides DRBD is being started outside of Pacemaker, Pacemaker is aware of DRBD by the device and by the filesystem. I tested stopping DRBD and starting it again and the partition got umounted ad mounted again, even on reboots :-). Although sometime i need to do a resouce cleanup to get all the things working as it should.

Kind regards,
Carlos.

Hi.

Since there was no one hint to solve this trouble, the only temporary
solution I found to allow me to continue with the cluster configuration
was wipe out all the related DRBD configuration from the crm and start
the DRBD resources by the /etc/init.d/drbd init script.

If someone have another solution I´ll be glad to hear about.

Kind regards,

Hi,

I believe the problem is that pacemaker is not yet very well equipped to
handle dual-primary setups (at least to my knowledge).

In a traditional primary/secondary setup, a node becoming master can
fence its peer and give you some safety against split brains. It's much
more complex for dual-primary. You would basically need to teach
pacemaker to remember which node left the cluster last, and make sure
the other node does not get to work standalone.

Again, I disbelieve that's currently possible. Maybe there's a simpler
solution, though.

Regards,
Felix
