I check and double check my configuration files and I don't see any typo. The configuration is the same as in your test system, but only in the controller node. In the satellite nodes, the configuration is slightly different: cat /etc/drbd.conf # You can find an example in /usr/share/doc/drbd.../drbd.conf.example include "drbd.d/global_common.conf"; include "drbd.d/*.res"; When I run: drbdadm dump vm-100-disk-1 The output on controller node is: 'vm-100-disk-1' not defined in your config (for this host) On the satellite nodes, the dump is correct. When I run (on controller node): drbdadm dump vm-100-disk-1 -c /var/lib/linstor.d/vm-100-disk-1.res Then, I see the dump of the configuration, correctly Regards, Daniel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ De: drbd-user-boun...@lists.linbit.com [mailto:drbd-user-boun...@lists.linbit.com] En nombre de Gábor Hernádi Enviado el: jueves, 9 de mayo de 2019 2:19 Para: drbd-user@lists.linbit.com Asunto: Re: [DRBD-user] Error message: Failed to create meta-data for DRBD volume Hello > Have you tried managing this resource by other means, like by using drbdtop > or drbdadm commands ? Yes, drbdadm always say: no resources defined! despite the resource definition file is there: /var/lib/linstor.d/vm-100-disk-1.res That still means that you have misconfigured DRBD itself or at least the necessary linstor-resources.res This is what my testsystems looks like: # cat /etc/drbd.conf include "drbd.d/global_common.conf"; include "drbd.d/*.res"; include "/var/lib/drbd.d/*.res"; # cat /etc/drbd.d/linstor-resources.res # This line was generated by linstor include "/var/lib/linstor.d/*.res"; # ls /var/lib/linstor.d linstor_common.conf testrsc.res please make sure that you have no typo in any of the mentioned config files. you said that you already have some resource files in /var/lib/linstor.d (like my "testrsc.res"). If you have configured DRBD properly, you should see even with a stopped linstor something like # drbdadm status testrsc role:Secondary disk:UpToDate or if (for whatever reason) someone stopped that resource (or all), you should at least have drbdadm find the corresponding .res file with # drbdadm dump testrsc # resource testrsc on bravo: not ignored, not stacked # defined at /var/lib/linstor.d/testrsc.res:4 resource testrsc { template-file /var/lib/linstor.d/linstor_common.conf; on bravo { node-id 0; volume 0 { device minor 1000; disk /dev/scratch/testrsc_00000; meta-disk internal; } } net { cram-hmac-alg sha1; shared-secret "Eimjfr+S8G7e+HNDZMD7"; } } -- Best regards, Gabor Hernadi _______________________________________________ drbd-user mailing list drbd-user@lists.linbit.com http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user
