Dear DRBD and WinDRBD users,
This is another release canidate for the 1.1 branch of WinDRBD.
It mainly contains bugfixes and the installer already knows
about LINSTOR: it will stop and start again the linstor-satellite
on upgrade (if it exists).
Also we fixed an issue with using existing data. Since this
requires configuration file changes we will publish a
tech guide on the LINBIT website soon explaining how
this can be done. Also c-max-rate setting should
work now, allowing to sync at slower speed.
This is a release canidate please help by testing it.
As always, you can download the installer from:
https://linbit.com/linbit-software-download-page-for-linstor-and-drbd-linux-driver/
From the WHATSNEW.md file:
Fix a DRBD issue that causes a resource to be stucked in Negoiating
on attach when there were 3 nodes.
Workaround for a (possible) Windows bug when reusing data of
NTFS partitions larger than 1.3TB. (You will have to specify
a drive letter where to mount the WinDRBD device)
Short timeout of drbdadm defaults to 30 seconds for Windows
systems.
Implemented disk statistics thereby fixing the resync rate
controller (setting c-max-rate had no effect before).
Installer: stop and restart LINSTOR satellite if present
Best regards,
- Johannes
