[Ocfs-users] Hard system restart when DRBD connection fails while in use

[Sunil Mushran]

Repeat the test. This time run the following on Node A
after you have killed Node B.

$ ps -e -o pid,stat,comm,wchan=WIDE-WCHAN-COLUMN

If we are lucky we'll get to see where that process is waiting.

If the drive is inactive (i.e. nothing is being written to it) then this does not occur.
