I do have the controller running on a dedicated Dabian VM ---- Linux linstor-ctlr 4.9.0-8-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.144-3.1 (2019-02-19) x86_64 Its storage is mounted from a NFS share on a FreeNAS server available to all the nodes in my cluster. The nodes are all connected to a 10G Quanta LB6M switch dedicated for DRBD traffic on a separate IP subnet, Proxmox and all other network traffic goes through another 10G Quanta switch. >> I have seen the same behaviour (all res files are being deleted from >> /var/lib/linstor.d only when all proxmox nodes went down and I have to >> restart them). I somewhat get why it deletes the res files, but the weird thing is that it will restore some of files and leave others missing after rebooting. I haven't seen a pattern of specific resources not being restored, and it's a different number of missing res files each time also. With the last restart only 13 of the 27 resources were restored, even after nearly 2 hours. I decided to do another restart and after that it eventually restored all of the resources. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I have started maintaining a copy of the "/var/lib/linstor.d/" from each node so that I can simply copy them back in manually if the controller fails to do it. Using the "--keep-res" method and matching all resources might do the trick. Does this only affect deleting during startup though? The controller can still tell a satellite to delete a resource even if the "--keep-res" is used, correct? I didn't find direct documentation on overriding the service configuration, but I will try it in the next few days. I'll also do some node restarts and be more intentional in examining any error logs that the linstor satellite and controller create. --Extra info https://pastebin.com/08YXGeL7 Thanks, Nicholas _______________________________________________ drbd-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user
