DRBD-8.4

Hi all,

I would like to upgrade my cluster to DRBD-8.4.1. Currently my cluster
is using DRBD-8.3.12 on CentOS-6.2.
I've already read the Linbit Guide for upgrading DRBD
http://www.drbd.org/users-guide/s-upgrading-drbd.html.

I'm using DRBD packages from the ELRepo repository.

#
kmod-drbd83-8.3.12-2.el6.elrepo.x86_64
drbd83-utils-8.3.12-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64

#
/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";

resource r0 {
on server1.local {
address 10.10.10.1:7788;
device /dev/drbd0;
disk /dev/vg00/lv02;
meta-disk internal;
}
on server2.local {
address 10.10.10.2:7788;
device /dev/drbd0;
disk /dev/vg00/lv02;
meta-disk internal;
}
}

resource r1 {
on server1.local {
address 10.10.10.1:7789;
device /dev/drbd1;
disk /dev/vg00/lv03;
meta-disk internal;
}
on server2.local {
address 10.10.10.2:7789;
device /dev/drbd1;
disk /dev/vg00/lv03;
meta-disk internal;
}
}

}
}

The ELRepo repository is proving DRBD packages for 8.4. Can I just
uninstall DRBD on the secondary node, than install DRBD-8.4 and than do
a failover and upgrade the primary node? Will my configuration work?
(/etc/drbd.conf, /etc/drbd.d/global_common.conf)

FWIW I've been using 8.4.0 from ATrpms for a while now without problems.
Never tried upgrading a live cluster from 8.3 to 8.4, though.

Does their kernel module package work across kernel updates?

What I find extremely annoying is that atrpm's packagea are named (e.g.)
drbd-kmdl-2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.centosplus.x86_64 -- i.e. kernel arch,
version, and repo are all part of the package *name*. You have to
remember to yum install new drbd-kmdl every time centos releases a
kernel update. Sometimes atrpms take a few days to build it, and
sometimes they never do (happend with some centosplus kernels).

It's annoying enough to bite the bullet & "upgrade" to elrepo packages
-- provided they built their kernel module properly and it doesn't
require a reinstall every damn time.

Why? In other words, what features unique to 8.4.x (and unavailable in
8.3) are you planning to use?

Cheers,
Florian

Hi Florian,

there is no feature in DRBD-8.4.x which is unique for us, but I
thought it it useful to use the latest versions because Linbit will
provide updates for DRBD-8.3.x till December 2012.

Regards - Willi
