While browsing trough  my enormous mailinglist backlog I ran into the following message from Gianluca Cecchi on the DRBD-user mailing list
guess I`ll have to give Lars a T-Shirt when we next meet ;)
- From: Gianluca Cecchi 
- To: drbd-user@lists.linbit.com 
- Subject: [DRBD-user] notes on 8.3.2 
-   
-   
- - drbdadm create-md r0 segfaults when the command "hostname" on the 
- server contains the fully qualified domain name but you have put only 
- the hostname part in drbd.conf 
- Instead, the command "drbdadm dump" correctly gives you a warning in 
- this case (suggesting how to correct the error you made....): 
-   
- suppose complete hostname is virtfed.domainname.com and you put 
- virtfed alone in drbd.conf 
- [root@virtfed ~]# drbdadm dump 
- WARN: no normal resources defined for this host (virtfed.domainname.com)!? 
-   
- while 
- [root@virtfed ~]# drbdadm create-md r0 
- Segmentation fault 
Guess I`ll have to give the Linbit crowd a T-Shirt when we next meet ;)
