This just seems to me like a simple case of copying data from machine A
to whichever is the master out your B/C drbd configuration (if you are
running drbd master/slave).
On machine A:
rsync -avz --stats --progress /path/to/your/data B_fqdn:/path/to/destination
Not really a drbd question.
Things to consider:
1. Make sure B and C are properly configured with DRBD and heartbeat for
fail over.
2. Test fail overs between B and C.
3. Copy your data with rsync
4. Make sure that the user account space from A is the same as B and C
so that all file permissions are correct.
HTH,
Diego

Hi all,
Can somebody gives me a hand on how to migrating data to DRBD from a
plain SCSI device? Say machine A is a regular Linux server, I would like
to migrate /dev/sdb on A to machine B and C which are configured as
mirror partner? B and C can be customized according to machine A.
PS: No need for live migration, downtime is allowed.
Any suggestion is appreciated.
...publicly in this list (since I want to see the answers as well). :-)
