version of the kmod-drbd84 package soon. The most recent version on your
mirrors, kmod-drbd84-8.4.10-1.18.el8_6, does not play well with Rocky 8.7.

to do a functional test. With your report, we will now rebuild it for el8.7.

for Rocky 8.7 (el8_7) is 4.18.0-425.3.1.el8. The symptom is sudden system
crash when a DRBD device is initialized running on this kernel. If I reboot
with the v8.6 kernel (4.18.0-372.26.1.el8_6) DRBD works more normally.

Hi John,

The kmod-drbd84-8.4.10 package was rebuilt against the v8.9 kernel and has
been pushed to our mirror sites:

kmod-drbd84-8.4.10-1.20.el8_7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

I will try to update the drbd version but this might take some time.

Akemi
