Re: [Xen-users] drbd integration in Xen3.3(Ubuntu)

[Longina Przybyszewska <longina@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The problem is that xm doesn't recognize 'drbd' as blok device type;

Since drbd-8.0.6 it is allowed to use drbd resource as VBD.

Ubuntu Hardy's drbd version is 8.0.11

In my configuration 'test-swap', 'test-root' are lvm partitions, defined 
with full path in drbd.conf as resources.
Such configuration gives (according to drbd manual) nice feature - 
automatic change done by Xen between Primary/Secondary  during migration.
