Hi There, I followed this material “[https://linbit.com/drbd-user-guide/linstor-guide-1\_0-en/#s-linstor\_ha](https://linbit.com/drbd-user-guide/linstor-guide-1_0-en/#s-linstor_ha)” on a test environment for a multicontroller HA which is working fine. To my understand there should have been a virtual IP to integrate with cloudstack for storage, but I didnt come across any virtual IP during the HA controller config. my question is how to confgure cloudstack in a Linstor multicontroller environment…? ---

You add the ocf IPaddr2 to the `linstor_db.toml` `start` section. like this: ```auto "ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 service_ip cidr_netmask=24 ip=10.0.0.99", ``` Then you can use this service ip in CloudStack ---

Hi, I have this in the config “/etc/drbd-reactor.d/linstor\_db.toml” hope its correct, but its not pinging to that IP, how to test before installing cloudstack [[promoter]] id = “linstor\_db” [promoter.resources.linstor\_db] start = [“var-lib-linstor.mount”, “linstor-controller.service”, “ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 service\_ip cidr\_netmask=32 ip=192.168.126.180”,] on all the host: root@host1:~# drbd-reactorctl status linstor\_db /etc/drbd-reactor.d/linstor\_db.toml: Promoter: Currently active on node ‘host2’ ○ drbd-services@linstor\_db.target × ├─ drbd-promote@linstor\_db.service ○ ├─ var-lib-linstor.mount ○ ├─ linstor-controller.service ○ └─ ocf.rs@service\_ip\_linstor\_db.service any idea Thanks ---

This knowledge base article, [“Troubleshooting DRBD Reactor Promoter Plugin Services”](https://kb.linbit.com/drbd-reactor-promoter-plugin-troubleshooting-services), can perhaps help you troubleshoot DRBD Reactor promoter managed services that are not starting. ---

shouldn’t the netmask be 24? And your output says, it is running on host2? ---

Hi, I found on the github website for drbd-reactor…can anyone please help… " OCF agents are expected in `/usr/lib/ocf/resource.d/` .
