VIP not working

[Hiu]

Thank you @rck.

resource-agents was not installed. I don’t know exactly where I should know this from - I can’t find anything about it in the docs. I’m just starting to get into the topic, maybe the documentation is just not intended for people like me.

Edit: found this:

Error: Unable to find agent 'nvmet-subsystem', try specifying its full name

It sounds like you might just be missing the resource-agents package. It doesn’t look like the guide explicitly mentions this package should be installed. # dnf install resource-agents If you can confirm this, that would be great, and I can update the guide.

I was able to start drbd-reactor.service normally. However, systemctl start ocf.rs@service_ip_linstor_db.service fails with the following error:

When running drbd-reactorctl status --verbose linstor_db.toml, I get the following errors:

What are these other dependencies? Can I somehow find out about them?
