drbd and el6

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



hey, I have an application for drbd replication between a pair of EL6 
servers, and I just realized that drbd is no longer built in.

googling found me this blog on doing it using ElRepo distributions... 
http://www.broexperts.com/2012/06/how-to-install-drbd-on-centos-6-2/

is that still best practice?  or is there a better distribution?


or really...   my application is a BackupPC server replicating its 
backup volume to a standby server (hey, no backup is really a backup, 
unless there is a backup of the backup, right?).    is there a 
better/alternate way of maintaining a mirror of a backupPC volume than 
drbd...    the backup volume is initially 8TB and could well grow to 3 
times that over time.   its stored on an XFS file system, under LVM, on 
striped raid6 volumes.
