I prefere to keep drbd as minimum. I'm much more familiar with LVM. If not an issue, i prefere to keep the number of drbd resources as bare minimum. > If both drives fail on one node, then raid will pass the disk errors up to > DRBD, which will mark the local storage as down, and yes, it will read all > needed data from remote node (writes are always sent to the remote node). > You would probably want to migrate the remote node to primary as quickly as > possible, and then work on fixing the storage.

Currently, I'm planning to start with 2TB disks.

Ok. Any "bare-metal" distribution with DRBD or detailed guide on how to implement HA? Something like FreeNAS, or similiar. _______________________________________________ drbd-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user
