Re: FreeBSD equivalent to DRBD

It look like ggated + geom will do at least part of the job. Setting up
the raid part looks fairly straight forward, the question is howto manage
the swop aspect, ie machine a primary to machine b primary. I guess it is
shutdown geom + gated and starting them on the the other machine. I don't
see any way of doing this though. Perhaps I'm missing something.

The exporting the drive via NFS and swopping under haertbeat looks ok to.
It is just the gom + ggated aspect I am not sure about.

I think ggated and gmirror won't satisfy you because I'd like to call ggated experimental. Furthermore it is not intended for those tasks, because it is kept very simple. A better scenario for the current implementation of ggated is to mount a remote CD filesystem locally.

If you really need DRBD then stay with DRDB and linux.
