Hi Dejan,

Both nodes are nfs servers. Each one has a primary drbd partition on it.
NODE A - drbd0 primary
              - drbd1 secondary
NODE B - drbd0 secondary
              - drbd1 primary
So the primary on each one is an nfs export. Since I have two
partitions I can't just put the /var/lib/nfs directory on the drbd
partition as is suggested for a normal active/passive set up.
I can only assume I need some way of keeping the /var/lib/nfs synced
between the machines, but I have no idea where to start with that.

Thanks
Guy
