Antwort: upgrade problems

Hi, the message you get during upgrade is perfectly normal. answer with
yes and it search for old metadata, answer with yes again if it offers to
upgrade ant it will upgrade the metadata. however be sure to have a
working backup of yout data in case something goes wrong. DO NOT ANSWER
WITH YES IF NO V7 METADATA IS FOUND!
I have upgraded about half a dozen DRBD clusters in the lost months
following this guide:

Re: Antwort: upgrade problems [In reply to]

Hi,

Thanks for your replies.

I followed your replies and it worked like you described.
Unfortunately I could not get to finish the upgrade because the HDD
died when upgrading the second server so I had to create everything
from start.
