DRBD Not syncing between my nodes

  • 772

Some version info:

Operating system is Ubuntu 11.10, on EC2, kernel is 3.0.0-16-virtual and the application info is:

Version: 8.3.11 (api:88)
GIT-hash: 0de839cee13a4160eed6037c4bddd066645e23c5 build by buildd@allspice, 2011-07-05 19:51:07

Getting some strange errors in dmesg (seen below) as well, there is no replication happening. I have made my first node primary and its showing:

drbd driver loaded OK; device status:
version: 8.3.11 (api:88/proto:86-96)
srcversion: DA5A13F16DE6553FC7CE9B2 
m:res  cs          ro               ds                 p       mounted  fstype
0:r0   StandAlone  Primary/Unknown  UpToDate/DUnknown  r----s  ext3

my secondary node is showing:

drbd driver loaded OK; device status:
version: 8.3.11 (api:88/proto:86-96)
srcversion: DA5A13F16DE6553FC7CE9B2 
m:res  cs          ro                 ds                     p       mounted  fstype
0:r0   StandAlone  Secondary/Unknown  Inconsistent/DUnknown  r----s

Showing /proc/drbd on the master shows:

version: 8.3.11 (api:88/proto:86-96)
srcversion: DA5A13F16DE6553FC7CE9B2 
 0: cs:StandAlone ro:Primary/Unknown ds:UpToDate/DUnknown   r----s
    ns:0 nr:0 dw:4 dr:1073 al:0 bm:0 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 ep:1 wo:f oos:262135964

Showing /proc/drbd on the slave shows that there is nothing being transfered...

version: 8.3.11 (api:88/proto:86-96)
srcversion: DA5A13F16DE6553FC7CE9B2

    ns:0 nr:0 dw:0 dr:0 al:0 bm:0 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 ep:1 wo:f oos:262135964

Here is my config...

resource r0 {
    protocol C;
    startup {
        wfc-timeout  15;
        degr-wfc-timeout 60;
    }
    net {
        cram-hmac-alg sha1;
        shared-secret "test123;
    }
    on drbd01 {
        device /dev/drbd0;
        disk /dev/xvdm;
        address 23.XX.XX.XX:7788; # blocked out ip
        meta-disk internal;
    }
    on drbd02 {
        device /dev/drbd0;
        disk /dev/xvdm;
        address 184.XX.XX.XX:7788; #blocked out ip
        meta-disk internal;
    }
}

I have run the following on the master:

sudo drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer primary all

There is no firewall between the systems.

Here is the dmesg with some errors:

Edit:

Reading some other similar issues, it was suggested to do a 'drbdadm dump all', so I figured it couldn't hurt. 

ubuntu@drbd01:~$ drbdadm dump all
/etc/drbd.conf:19: in resource r0, on drbd01:
    IP 23.XX.XX.XX not found on this host.

and on slave:

root@drbd02:~# drbdadm dump all
/etc/drbd.conf:25: in resource r0, on drbd02:
    IP 184.XX.XX.XX not found on this host.

Strange it doesn't find its own ip, however, this is an Amazon EC2 system using an elastic IP... here are my ipconfigs for both...

    You actually did not need to run sudo drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer primary all

    AS long as /dev/drbdYou should have done the following

    Step01) sudo service mysql stop on DRBD Primary so additional changes are not piled for DRBD to sync

    Step02) sudo drbdadm connect all on DRBD Secondary

    Step03) sudo cat /proc/drbd on DRBD Secondary to make sure the connection stats is WFConnection

    Step04) sudo drbdadm connect all on DRBD Primary

    Step05) sudo cat /proc/drbd on DRBD Primary to make sure the connection state is SyncTarget.

    Step06) sudo service mysql stop on DRBD Primary so MySQL can get back up. The sync will continue. You do not have to wait for DRBD to be fully sync'd in Step 05.

    CAVEAT

    DRBD should not be used over a geographic distance. I work with setups that have DRBD pairs connect via CrossOver Cables over 192.168.x.x..

  2. Try following:

    On primary node 

    drbdadm connect all

    On secondary node 

    drbdadm -- --discard-my-data connect all
