Source: drbd8 Severity: important The DRBD resource script for Xen (/etc/xen/scripts/block-drbd) does not work when using the xl toolstack anymore, which is exclusively available in xen 4.2 and later (i.e. the current Testing).
First of all, it needs the patch mentioned in [1] for basic support. However, when using it in conjunction with pygrub, it fails to find its boot device, whereas this worked fine earlier. Consider this configuration domu.cfg: bootloader = '/usr/lib/xen-4.3/bin/pygrub' disk = [ 'drbd:web1,xvda1,w', ] it fails with: xl create -c /etc/xen/auto/matrix-web1.cfg Parsing config from /etc/xen/auto/matrix-web1.cfg libxl: error: libxl_bootloader.c:628:bootloader_finished: bootloader failed - consult logfile /var/log/xen/bootloader.22.log libxl: error: libxl_exec.c:118:libxl_report_child_exitstatus: bootloader [20386] exited with error status 1 libxl: error: libxl_create.c:900:domcreate_rebuild_done: cannot (re-)build domain: -3 libxl: error: libxl_dom.c:35:libxl__domain_type: unable to get domain type for domid=22 Unable to attach console libxl: error: libxl_exec.c:118:libxl_report_child_exitstatus: console child [0] exited with error status 1 # cat /var/log/xen/bootloader.22.log Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/xen-4.3/bin/pygrub", line 799, in <module> part_offs = get_partition_offsets(file) File "/usr/lib/xen-4.3/bin/pygrub", line 106, in get_partition_offsets image_type = identify_disk_image(file) File "/usr/lib/xen-4.3/bin/pygrub", line 48, in identify_disk_image fd = os.open(file, os.O_RDONLY) OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'web1' However, with the configuration: kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-amd64" ramdisk = "/boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-amd64" disk = [ 'drbd:web1,xvda1,w', ] it works fine. I guess the resource script needs a few more tweaks to work with pygrub.
