I'm using XEN 3.0.2-3 with Kernel 2.6.16.29 on Ubuntu Dapper Server 6.06 with a XEN DomU on a DRBD Device (Version 8.0pre6) on LVM. It's in production only since Sat, Nov 11. I didn't try to resize the underlying LVM device but I'm taking daily snapshots and do rsync backups of the snapshots. This works for me, but check out drbd.org and the DRBD changelogs because afaik DRBD on LVM is supported only in the 8.0pre series not in the stable 0.7.X. In the changelog of 8.0 you find an entry: 8.0pre3 (api:82/proto:80) -------- * Now it works on device mapper (LVM) as well as on "real" block devices. * Finally (after years) a sane "drbdadm adjust" imprementation, which is really really robust. ... -- __________________________________________________ Ralf Schenk fon (02 41) 9 91 21-0 fax (02 41) 9 91 21-59 rs@xxxxxxxxxx Databay AG Hüttenstraße 7 D-52068 Aachen www.databay.de Sitz/Amtsgericht Aachen HRB:8437 USt-IdNr.: DE 210844202 Databay - einfach machen. _________________________________________________ Diese E-Mail und etwa angehängte Dateien enthalten vertrauliche Informationen und sind ausschließlich für den Adressaten bestimmt.
