Hi all,
yesterday I startet to migrate my openSUSE machines from normal distribution to the rolling-update Tumbleweed (currently openSUSE 12.3) - machines are productive and so Factory was no option.
After switching to Tumbleweed everything works fine except DRBD. I found out that there is an inconsistency between drbd kernel module (V8.4.3 in kernel-default) and the drbd admin tools (V8.3.11 from repository) which ends up with the inability to start the cluster volumes.
As workaround I found a matching rpm on suse build service, but please include a proper drbd-tools version in the Tumbleweed repos.
Thx in advance.

Stability, stability, stability is what is needed for production machines which is something that TW _cannot_ provide/guarantee. Therefore it is not recommended for your use case.
It all depends on what your "production" is? I know lots of valid use cases for constantly rolling updates for real-life-production-systems, so please don't think that "stability" is somehow the only way stuff like that can work.
I'll be glad to add the drbd tools to Tumbleweed, Wirlach, what repo should I pull them from to ensure they are kept up to date with the kernel releases?
thanks,
greg k-h
Properly administered/managed /production/ machines should never be updated without properly testing any software update whether it be kernel or application updates.
Tested on a test machine of course. The IT direstor at the places I worked at would fire anyone for allowing -untested- updates to production machines. I don't want to imply that TW is not stable just that bugs will always exist the the least likely place. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
