[fedora-virt] DRBD and virtualization
So DRBD is upstream:
http://linux.slashdot.org/story/09/12/11/0048247/DRBD-To-Be-Included-In-L...
Does this have any implications for virtualization? It's just that I
notice there's a whole section in the DRBD manual about using it to
provide replicated block devices for virtual machines:
http://www.drbd.org/users-guide/ch-xen.html
(Chapter talks about Xen, but it seems like it would apply to any
hypervisor, although Xen appears to specifically support some features
of DRBD, such as drbd: block devices, and the ability to live migrate
when DRDB detects a failure)
