I've got it running on two Centos4 machines in a master/slave 
configuration. The cluster runs vmware server and I use heartbeat to do 
the automatic fail over between the two hosts. The hardest part of 
getting this to work was getting vmware to not choke when the fail over 
machine mounts the replicated partitions. The heartbeat service and drbd 
can be found in the Centos plus repo. I believe.

Anyone using drbd ?

Distributed replicated block device ?

I am curious about it.

I do not know what my schedule is but if there is someone in COLUG  
who uses DRBD and would like to present then I would try to attend.

If there is no one who is using it I guess I could learn on my own  
and share what I learn.

Anyone familiar with drbd or other similar tools ?
