It + is designed to serve as a building block for high availability + clusters and in this context, is a "drop-in" replacement for shared + storage. Simplistically, you could see it as a network RAID 1. + + Each minor device has a role, which can be 'primary' or 'secondary'. + On the node with the primary device the application is supposed to + run and to access the device (/dev/drbdX). Every write is sent to + the local 'lower level block device' and, across the network, to the + node with the device in 'secondary' state. The secondary device + simply writes the data to its lower level block device. + + DRBD can also be used in dual-Primary mode (device writable on both + nodes), which means it can exhibit shared disk semantics in a + shared-nothing cluster. Needless to say, on top of dual-Primary + DRBD utilizing a cluster file system is necessary to maintain for + cache coherency. + + For automatic failover you need a cluster manager (e.g. heartbeat). + See also: http://www.drbd.org/, http://www.linux-ha.org + + If unsure, say N. + +config DRBD_FAULT_INJECTION + bool "DRBD fault injection" + depends on BLK_DEV_DRBD + help + + Say Y here if you want to simulate IO errors, in order to test DRBD's + behavior. + + The actual simulation of IO errors is done by writing 3 values to + /sys/module/drbd/parameters/ + + enable_faults: bitmask of... + 1 meta data write + 2 read + 4 resync data write + 8 read + 16 data write + 32 data read + 64 read ahead + 128 kmalloc of bitmap + 256 allocation of EE (epoch_entries) + + fault_devs: bitmask of minor numbers + fault_rate: frequency in percent + + Example: Simulate data write errors on /dev/drbd0 with a probability of 5%. + echo 16 > /sys/module/drbd/parameters/enable_faults + echo 1 > /sys/module/drbd/parameters/fault_devs + echo 5 > /sys/module/drbd/parameters/fault_rate + + If unsure, say N. |
