Hi,

we used DRDB in the past on our systems... they where upgraded from Proxmox 4=>5...
We do not use it anymore (for a long time). Now we are on ProMox 5.3.8.

During every backup we get the message:
Plugin "PVE::Storage::Custom::DRBDPlugin" is implementing an older storage API, an upgrade is recommended

After googling I found this thread:
http://lists.linbit.com/pipermail/drbd-user/2018-November/024668.html
It means the ProxMox storage API is not compatible with installed DRDB Storage Plugin anymore.


I cannot find any installed drdb package on the machines:
dpkg --list | grep -i drdb => empty

But there are various commands on the machines:

drbd
drbdadm drbdmeta drbd-overview
drbdmanage drbdmon drbdsetup


drbdmanage -v
drbdmanage 0.99.1; GIT-hash: cdf97fea4779d279a406d0473348e81e26902c46


How can I get rid of the message (and drdb)?

unless this is just a typo in the forum post, you should probably grep for drbd, not drdb and then remove the packages you no longer need ;)
 
Oh my god - you are right :eek:

I really did not see it... 4 eyes see more than 2 :)

thx, the systems are drbd clean now...
 
rbd <-> rdb is a common one as well - happens all the time ;)
