Hi: we have a remote site which has a two-node drbd cluster. last week there was a power outage. since we have ups for each server configured, so the cluster auto shutdown cleanly.
unfortunately when utility power came back, one of the servers didn't recover. it seems like the attached ups is dead or hang. we need to start the survived node for service. I thought I just need to set it as primary. but soon I found although the disk status is consistent, it need to find peer to make sure if it is UpToDate. at drbd8 there is command "drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer". but it didn't work at drbd9. finally I found the new command "drbdadm del-peer" and then I can force drbd primary. I don't know what's the correct procedure under this kind of situation. I read the drbd manual again and still has no clue. is "drbdadm del-peer" enough for doing the work? will the secondary node recover automatically when it comes back? thanks a lot for help.
