Re: [Xen-users] xen, lvm, drbd, bad kernel messages

Regardless of the filesystem (i've used reiserfs, xfs, ext3), whenever I mount a fresh DRBD partition I get some nasty kernel messages.

This is under Debian Sarge, Xen kernel 2.6.11.12-xen0 (dom0) using DRBD v0.7.11 (pulled from Debian "testing").

Answering my own post in case anyone else runs into this.

There is a good chance this problem is indeed related to the bio_clone bug present in 2.6.11.4. Applying the one line patch fixed the problem. However, upgrading to DRBD 0.7.14 also fixed the problem (though it is unclear as to why).

For more information about the bio_clone bug and patch see this post:

In relation to DRBD see this post:
