Is thaty all that's needed?.
Normally it should be installed by DRBD MC, whatever OS you are using. It should be called /usr/local/bin/drbd-gui-helper-0.8.2 in this case. Are you saying it's not there? If you copy it there and rename it, it should be enough. I promise I test it on Windows next time. :) > Also when adding cluster > hosts, the interface does not initially accept host IP addresses - in fact > it tried to do DNS resolution on the IP address, which failed. (These > hosts are on an internal network with no internal network dns). Actually it shouldn't be a problem. Even if it fails you should be able to continue after 4 seconds time out. This DNS resolution of the IP address is actually not necessary anymore and will be removed. > One can click through this and eventually the host is seen, but it's > awkward.

It's interesting though. :) If you would press the next button the config wouldn't be changed, only if you would press "Create Corosync config" button, that is disabled by default. I know it is not very clear at this point and I am thinking how to improve it. So yes you could press next couple of times you would be done. :) Rasto -- : Dipl-Ing Rastislav Levrinc : DRBD-MC http://www.drbd.org/mc/management-console/ : DRBD/HA support and consulting http://www.linbit.com/ DRBD(R) and LINBIT(R) are registered trademarks of LINBIT, Austria. _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
