One node is fine. > Is it possible to start with zfs plugin from start? No. We want to keep the configuration that is stored per node (i.e., drbdmanaged.cfg) minimal. So this is something that has to be stored to the "cluster DB" (aka. control volume). And for that you have to have a minimal base setup, which is exactly "drbdmanage init" in your case so that the node can write to the "cluster DB". Regards, rck PS: Note that the control volume will always be on LVM, only the data volumes will then be on whatever storage plugin you configured. _______________________________________________ drbd-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user
