NAME

6       drbd.service - System unit to configure "all" DRBD resources

SYNOPSIS

9       drbd.service

DESCRIPTION

13       Do not confuse this with the templated, resource specific
14       drbd@RESNAME.service.
15
16       This unit is basically a wrapper for the old style init script that
17       will attempt to configure all DRBD resources as defined in the global
18       configuration files.
19
20       It can not be parameterized, and there is no useful way to wait for any
21       or all DRBD resources to become "ready".
22
23       You should usually disable this unit.
24
25       If you use a cluster manager like pacemaker, that should bring up the
26       DRBD resources instead, and via the DRBD ocf resource agent integration
27       also notices when DRBD is "ready" to be used.
28
29       If you use LINSTOR and/or drbd-reactor, LINSTOR will bring up the
30       resources, and drbd-reactor will attempt to bring up the services once
31       DRBD becomes ready.
32
33       If you want to "hardcode" a promotion/mount attempt of specific DRBD
34       resources into your boot sequence, you should be using
35       drbd@RESNAME.target (see there) and
36       drbd-wait-promotable@RESNAME.service, implicitly drbdRESNAME.service,
37       and maybe optionally drbd-lvchange@RESNAME.service.
38
39       If you think you want to enable this unit, you probably still should
40       disable this unit, as this unit may not do what you think it does, and
41       there likely are better ways to do what you expected this unit to do.
