Configuration

We started the configuration by creating three small partitions: one 3.3Gb for /, a 1.1Gb for /var and 1 Gb swap partition. The rest of the drive was left unpartitioned leaving us about 64Gb for use by DRBD. OpenExchange doesn't allow you to choose any packages during the install. So we had to install DRBD and Linux-HA packages after the initial install. Both systems were configured identically except for hostnames and IP addresses. We named the two machines campeche and chihuahua.
