On a fresh install of Intrepid Server drbd is not started on system boot. However, manually running "/etc/init.d/drbd start" works fine. I noticed that the startup link in /etc/rc2.d/ is missing. After running "update-rc.d drbd defaults" the link is still missing, it only exists in rc3.d and rc5.d |
The DRBD package is currently mentioned on one of the Ubuntu marketing pages:
http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/technologies/storage
DRBD is used in HA clusters to provide a redundant storage device. In Intrepid's current state, DRBD will not start after a reboot. Thus, the underlying storage will become unavailable. This is not the standard behaviour and is due to incorrect LSB headers in the init.d script (it's using redhat style runlevels instead of debian). A fix to the LSB headers will allow the package to correctly start on system boot.
This packaged is fixed in the development branch according to the Launchpad janitor comment below. The relevant section:
This bug was fixed in the package drbd8 - 2:8.3.0-1ubuntu1
* Modify init script's default runlevels (LP: #282876):
- start by default on 2, 3, 4 and 5
- stop by default on 0, 1 and 6
52 days prior I attached a debdiff patch that did the same:
