sync only affects stuff in the linux (buffer/) page cache, DRBD sits below that. "no effect" on DRBD IO. > > Oct 12 06:56:11 ha14a kernel: block drbd1: Began resync as SyncTarget (will > > sync 0 KB [0 bits set]). > > Oct 12 06:56:12 ha14a kernel: d-con ha02_mysql: PingAck did not arrive in > > time. > > Oct 12 06:56:12 ha14a kernel: d-con ha02_mysql: peer( Primary -> Unknown ) > > conn( SyncTarget -> NetworkFailure ) pdsk( UpToDate -> DUnknown ) has been said before: DRBD ping timeout is apparently too short for the latency in your setup. increase it appropriately. Where latency in this case involves network rtt plus kernel thread scheduling plus maybe additional synchronous (flush/fua) IO plus whatever else DRBD feels is necessary for a full DRBD to DRBD round-trip. > > However, I can guarantee that the network connection is solid. > > Running ping flood, I get 30,000 packets sent with no loss or > > latency. Mind telling us the network characteristics? IO backend? Virtualized? Distribution?
