Description Marco Fortina 2023-10-15 09:52:05 UTC

Description of problem:

It's not possibile to use DRBD in CentOS Stream 9, because drbd's kernel module is not available.

Please add kmod-drbd on EPEL Next repository.

Thanks,
Marco

DRBD version 9.2.6 is out: https://pkg.linbit.com//downloads/drbd/9/drbd-9.2.6.tar.gz

This one can be build on CentOS Stream 9 without errors.

I'm not maintaining the kernel module part, only util package. Hence shoud be re-assigned, possibly to jmforbes?

Comment 3 Justin M. Forbes 2023-11-06 12:42:22 UTC

RHEL does not ship the drbd module, and by policy Fedora/EPEL does not allow kmod packages.  It might be possible to request that the drbd module get enabled, but I don't know how likely it is to happen as enabled means supported.
