Hi Robert,

I’m trying to get Xen to use a native DRBD device but it seems it will not create the virtual machine. It does not seem to like the DRBD device type, any ideas on what might be wrong?

I’m pretty sure my xen config file is OK and the DRBD device looks fine too.

xm create centostest
Using config file "./centostest".
Error: Device 768 (vbd) could not be connected. /etc/xen/scripts/block failed; error detected.

(...)

Contents of config file ("centostest"):

(...)

disk = [ 'drbd:drbd0,hda,w' ,'file:/root/centos52.iso,hdc:cdrom,r' ]

I guess the drbd type of block device is unknown to xen. /dev/drbd0 is just a standard block device, so it should be something like :

disk = [ 'phy:/dev/drbd0,hda,w' ,'file:/root/centos52.iso,hdc:cdrom,r' ]

In any case, I would advise you to slice your drbd device with lvm so you have more flexibility in block device management.

Cheers,

Denis
