Re: [Xen-users] lvm+drbd+xen problem

Hi Daniel,

I get this behaviour when the DomUs are installed on a drbd device as a 
block device and the DomUs are active on them. I can't use the 
"drbd:RESOURCE" since I'm using the drbd v0.7.22 shipped with SLES10 and 
not drbd 8.x. I am using "phy:/dev/drbdx" when the Xen host dies on me.
I don't get anything in the log files since the Xen host hangs 
instantly, I don't get anything in the passive Xen host either, except 
some normal lines that it lost contact with the other Xen host.
