However, just like RAID is not a replacement for backups, DRBD is IMHO not a replacement for database replication. DRBD would just replicate database files, so if for example file corruption would be copied from host to host. When something provides a native replication system, it is probably better to use that (or at least use it at one level). -- Chris Adams <li...@cmadams.net> _______________________________________________ Users mailing list: Users@clusterlabs.org http://lists.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/users Project Home: http://www.clusterlabs.org Getting started: http://www.clusterlabs.org/doc/Cluster_from_Scratch.pdf Bugs: http://bugs.clusterlabs.org
