What the DRX should be configured for is the configuration of individual replication resources and the global settings configuration that the DRX requires to run. Settings for the individual resources are configured through the drbd.conf file and the global settings are configured through the drx.conf file.
...
...
DRX requires configuration of individual replication resources and global settings required to perform drx. Configuration for individual resources is done in the proxy section of each replication configuration file, and global settings are configured through the drx.conf file.
All configuration below is based on working with Block Replication (BSR). For integration with File Replication (FSR), see Configuring file replication in the appendix.
- If BSR is installed locally, you do not need to change the path of drbd.conf. to its configuration file as DRX automatically recognizes it through an environment variable. /etc/drbdbsr.conf is the default path and you can change the path through drx.conf.
- If you are adjusting DRX's own options, create a drx.conf file. You do not need to create it unless it is a special case.
4.1. Configuration files
DRX is recommended to unify the configuration file of each node into the same "drbd.conf" file for the sake of management but it is not mandatory, and configuration contents of each node can be changed according to the configuration method, and the configuration file name, Can be specified separately. The major configuration items of DRX are as follows.
- Connection configuration: Setting be changed through drx.conf.
- It describes replication connections, setting buffer sizes and options, etc. By default, it's written in the same format as the BSR configuration file, and you'll usually end up modifying some of the contents of bsr.conf that was already written when BSR was installed locally (see Format of the BSR configuration file).
Configuration Properties
The main configuration properties are:
- Connections: Set the DRX inbound IP and outbound IP address addresses to work with DRBDreplication.
- Buffer ConfigurationBuffers: Set buffer size per resource (channel)
- Compression/Encryption Configuration: Setting the Set compression/encryption function features ON/OFF
DRX sets the buffer size in the "proxy" section within the DRBD replication configuration file and sets the DRX IP address in the "proxy on" section within the host section. Compression and encryption settings are described in the plugin subsection in within the proxy section. The following Below is a the basic DRX configuration form, with slightly different some differences between 1:1 single replication and 1:N multi-replication configurationsintegration.

Local configuration
...
- With DRX installed and running on node1 and node2 local
...
...
- contents of "bsr.conf" on node1 and node2 are
...
- the same on both nodes.
- The following are examples is an example of a 1:1 replication configurations configuration and a 1:2 replication configurationsconfiguration.
- Note that each the respective port information must be subject to exception handling exceptionally handled by the firewall and configured so that there are no redundant ports are used.

Dedicated server configuration
By default, configuration files are configured to the configuration file is the same for both nodes and DRX nodes. However, because of , but due to the nature of the dedicated server, it is necessary to modify the servers, DRX config to match the drbd-utils installed on the dedicated server to accommodate all of these nodes in the DRX dedicated servermust be modified to accommodate both Windows and Linux nodes in DRX. The configuration procedure is as described below, and the example configuration example is based on a Linux dedicated server.

drx.conf
You Apart from the BSR configuration, you can set the DRX internal behavior properties independently of the DRBD configuration. Normally, you don't need to provide a property file because it works with the DRX preferences. This property is applied at the start of the DRX, and the DRX property file is created with reference to the following properties table, which have the meaning of global settings that are applied when DRX starts. In most cases, you do not need to modify the drx.conf file, as DRX default settings will work. Use the following table of properties as a guide.
- file name: "drx.conf"
- default path: DRX Installed path
- Caution: [global] section should be described at the beginning of the file
| type | property | default value | description |
