Simon,
thank you so much. I saw a reference to that on the pages about xen and
should have realized it would apply to any virtual environment. Doh!
Writing to /dev/drbd/by-res/r1 did it and I now have my first vm ticking
along nicely through DRBD and I'm a very happy camper.
Thanks again for the prompt and excellent solution.
Cheers

Does anyone have any thoughts on why my data doesn't seem to be
replicating or perhaps point me in the right direction for how to dig a
little deeper. My limited understanding is that DRBD should be between
my host and the LVM volume but perhaps it's writing directly to the LV
and not going through DRBD.
Hi Paul,
What did you configure your VM to use as its disk?
/dev/VirtualMachines/test2 or /dev/drbd/by-res/r1 (/dev/drbd2)?
If you used /dev/VirtualMachines/test2 then that's what's wrong. your
reads and writes are bypassing DRBD. The only thing that should be
using /dev/VirtualMachines/test2 is DRBD, your VM should write to
/dev/drbd/by-res/r1
Cheers,
Simon
