[ale] DRBD - anyone using this?

[Scott Plante]

We looked at doing something like this with Postgresql a few years ago (drbd/corosync), but ended up using Slony instead.

Slony is tricky to set up, but works quite well for us in practice. The native Postgres replication wasn't available at that time (8.4 was latest) but another group is using that now. I'm not directly involved but it's a lot easier than Slony to set up and they like it.

Hey folks, 

I'm curious if anyone here is using DRBD. If so, what are your experiences? 

I'm looking at it to back up various SQL databases.
