Hi,
I need to create two openvz guests which have access to the DRBD.ko kernel module.
The first will be a drbd proxy guest, so it just needs to be able to load the module to access /proc/drbd after which it will be running the drbd proxy software to give us a drbd HA guest.
The second will be a drbd backup server so it will need to load the drbd module and run drbd inside the container talking to the lower level /dev/sda3 block device.
1, Is there a way to enable the guest to use the DRBD module?
2, I believe I can pass the sda3 device to the guest using vzctl set 101 --devnodes sda3:rw
Thanks for your help
Mark

Hi,
Why trouble around with activating DRBD in the CT ?
If you have the CTs running on 2 different Hosts let the Hosts do the
DRBD stuff and simply mount the DRBD partitions into the CTs.
I might be misunderstanding your request. So please forgive me if this
advise total rubbish :-)
regards,
Sirk
