A combined node is one that has a satellite installation and a controller installation. Since the controller does not control its own startup/shutdown or HA/failover/etc., the combined mode is effectively really just a marker for the administrator as of now. You can just as well register all nodes as satellites, but still run a controller on any of them without any problems. > So, what's the use for the COMBINED type ?

If it has a replica of the database, or otherwise access to the most recent version of the database (e.g., the DB on shared storage, on replicated storage, or a centralized database on some database server), then yes. Make sure only one Controller is active at a time. br, Robert _______________________________________________ drbd-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user
