How reproducible: Update the kernel to 3.8.3-103 version, reboot the system and start the drbd service. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Disable drbd service: chkconfig drbd off 2. Actualize the kernel: yum -y update kernel 3. Reboot the system. 4. Login in the system. 5. Execute the drbd service: service drbd start Actual results: [root@my_server ~]# uname -a Linux my_server 3.8.3-103.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Mar 18 15:46:01 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [root@my_server ~]# service drbd start: --== Thank you for participating in the global usage survey ==-- The server's response is: node already registered Starting DRBD resources: DRBD module version: 8.4.2 userland version: 8.3.13 you should upgrade your drbd tools!

Expected results: The drbd 8.3.13 work with kernel 3.8.3-103 Additional info: I suppose that is possible that drbd 8.4.2 works with 3.8.3-103 kernel, but this package is not in Fedora 17 (Fedora 18 or later) and is not possible install it for dependencies.
Thanks for catching this. I'll test 8.4.2 on F17 this evening and try to get an updated package pushed.
drbd-8.4.2-1.fc17 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 17. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/drbd-8.4.2-1.fc17
I have enabled updates-testing repository and I have updated drbd to 8.4.2-1 version. The new drbd package work fine with the kernel 3.8.3-103 (i686 and x86_64). The bug is solved.
Thanks, Enrique! If possible, add karma here: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/drbd-8.4.2-1.fc17
Done, thank you.
drbd-8.4.2-1.fc17 has been pushed to the Fedora 17 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
