• DRBD from LIN:BIT (also see Using DRBD with XCP and XenServer): The Distributed Replicated Block Device (DRBD) is a software-based, shared-nothing, replicated storage solution mirroring the content of block devices (hard disks, partitions, logical volumes etc.) between hosts.

  When a DRBD resource is used as a replicated Virtual Block Device (VBD) for Xen, it serves to make the entire contents of a domU's virtual disk available on two servers, which can then be configured for automatic fail-over.

  With this step-by-step guide, we'll show you how to seemlessly integrate DRBD into XCP and XenServer based virtualization environments.
