Hi all,
I have setup a drbd resource between 2 server nodes - everything works correctly when doing sync tests between the two. (I want to create a HA cluster using drbd,xen and heartbeat)
However, when I try and create a XEN VM with Centos as guest operating system, I get through to the partitioning screen on the install but when I select a partitioning type the next screen gives me the following error :
"An error has occurred - no valid devices
were found on which to create new file
systems. Please check your hardware for
the cause of this problem."
This is the first time attempting create a setup like this and searching Google does not help much...
my config files for DRBD and XEN....
DRBD (just the section that is pertinent)
on xennode0 {
device /dev/drbd0;
disk /dev/sda5;
address X.X.X.X:7788;
flexible-meta-disk internal;
}
on xennode1 {
device /dev/drbd0;
disk /dev/sda5;
address X.X.X.X:7788;
meta-disk internal;
}
XEN
kernel = "/boot/xeninstall/vmlinuz"
ramdisk = "/boot/xeninstall/initrd.img"
extra = "text"
name = "VM"
maxmem = 3000
memory = 3000
vcpus = 4
on_poweroff = "destroy"
on_reboot = "restart"
on_crash = "restart"
vfb = [ ]
disk = [ "phy:/dev/drbd0,sda1,w", "tap:aio:/srv/xen/xenswap.img,sda2,w" ]
vif = [ "mac=00:16:3e:11:67:ae,bridge=xenbr0" ]
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
Thanks in advance!
