GFS in and of itself does not give you distribution. E.g., you can mount
one GFS from several nodes via iSCSI. Fine and good, but dual-primary
DRBD allows both your nodes to make all reads from the local disk, no
network involvement. There are performance benefits.
Can DRBD also replicate ethernet interfaces? (it is not necessary becouse of
vrrp but may be that is something what DRBD offers).
No. It's a *block* device, meaning storage only.
I'm sorry, may be that are stupid questions but I'm not native english
speaker - I can mix something ;)
You're doing fine.
What does it mean stonith? I can't find it in dictionary :)
Shoot The Other Node In The Head.
It's techniques that allow one peer to shut down the other in an instant
(e.g. by cutting its power).
It is necessary to protect yourself from split-brains: Without it, in
case the link between the nodes breaks, each will store rapidly
diverging data, with practically no way of recovering.
HTH,
Felix
