Hello, I wanted to install test environment of Linbit. I followed this guide Everything passed, but I after creating new VM

NOTICE
Trying to create diskful resource (pm-4d945894) on (prox-primary).
Diskfull assignment on prox-primary failed, let’s autoplace it.
TASK ERROR: unable to create VM 100 - API Return-Code: 500. Message: Could not autoplace resource pm-4d945894, because:…
In storage definition I can see the new resource.

But lsblk shows no new DRBD
drbdadm status
no resources defined!

It seems like drbd doesnt work. Strage is this is not the first installation and for the first time I was able to get it working, but dunno how :slight_smile:

Thanks for advice

Are you able to spawn resources using the LINSTOR Client?

Try “manually” spawning a resource using the LINSTOR Client from the resource-group you created for Proxmox (the documentation uses defaultpool):

linstor resource-group list
linstor resource-group spawn defaultpool testres_0 1GiB

That might give you a more clear error that you can use to troubleshoot or post here.

Thank you for the answer.
Here is the error:

linstor resource-group spawn pve-rg testres_0 1GiB

Error:

Hello, I got it working. I followed this guide. So I used console commands instead of GUI. Now I see DRBD supported in GUI nodes. I’m continuing testing and installing HA. Thanks
