Hello Damien, preemption is set on both systems, so when master server goes down or any CARP interface on master goes down, slave becomes master (but only on the CARP interface if only that went down). Can you have a look at my previous question??: if the different carp interfaces are used for di

I compiled sysutils/htop from the ports collection and noticed that it does not display any process information as it's supposed to do. Instead I get a blank screen (see [0]). htop relies on linprocfs(5) to gather process statistic. linprocfs is mounted: linprocfs on /usr/compat/linux/proc (linpr
