• DRBD® is open source distributed replicated block storage software for the Linux platform and is typically used for high performance high availability.
  • DRBD ® software is open-source designed to mirror data among any number of Linux servers in shared-nothing high availability clusters.
  • In this section, we will mount the DRBD device on the second node and check whether the replication is working or not.
  • Distributed Replicated Block Device (DRBD) is a distributed replicated storage system for the Linux platform. It mirrors block devices between multiple hosts...
  • This section covers setting up a DRBD to replicate a separate /srv partition, with an ext3 filesystem between two hosts.
  • DRBD is a shared-nothing, synchronously replicated block device. It is designed to serve as a building block for high availability clusters and in this context, is a...
  • Replication means you can use DRBD in a cluster of 3 nodes and not decide which two nodes can run which workload.
  • The Distributed Replicated Block Device (DRBD) is a distributed storage system over multiple different hosts like a network RAID 1...
  • The replication is transparent to other applications on the host systems. ... On each node, load the drbd kernel module, create meta data and bring it online.
