💅 cs_make_sbd_devices(8) — ClusterTools2, bestie ✨

💖 NAME 💖

okay so cs_make_sbd_devices is the main character here: it initialises SBD devices. That's the whole name vibe. periodt.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

cs_make_sbd_devices OPTION

cs_make_sbd_devices --init [<SBD_OPTS> [<SBD_CONF>]]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

cs_make_sbd_devices initialises SBD devices defined in the SBD config file. The first sectors of the devices will be overwritten. This script is simply a wrapper for the sbd command. Not me being dramatic — that overwrite line is literally in the manual, so read it twice. ⚠️

For information on timings please see stonith_sbd(7), sbd(8), and multipath.conf(5).

bestie, this is the danger bit: the first sectors of the devices will be overwritten. no cap. 💀
