Mailing List Archive: "StandAllone" in /proc/drbd

A few times I have ended up with "StandAllone" in the cs: field of
/proc/drbd. What I would like to know is: why does this occur, and more
importantly, how do I get it out of this state and back to "Connected" or
"WFconnection"?

(This usually occurs when I do something silly with heartbeat and
channel-bonded Gbit ethernet as the connection between the two (in
/etc/drbd.conf).)

Cheers,
Chris.

Probabely you managed to have both sides of drbd in primary state. -->
Then one of the two devices desides to drop it's network configuration
==> cs:StandAllone

Ways out:

drbdsetup /dev/nbX net .....

the improved drbd script from cvs supports:

/etc/init.d/drbd drbdX reconnect
