Hi All.  
I am trying to install a high availability system using Rocky 9. This consists of KVM with pacemaker, corosync and DRBD. My problem is I cannot find kmod-drbd for either Rocky 8 or 9. I can install drbd, but when I run drbdadm, I get `modinfo: ERROR: Module drbd not found.`.

I have looked in the epel repositories for both 8 and 9, but cannot find them there either. The last time I installed such a system was on Centos 8, which had `kmod-drbd90.x86_64` in elrepo. I found a repo on the web for Rocky HA and have enabled that, but I still have no kmod-drbd.

Any suggestions or help deeply appreciated.

Shaun.

There’s drbd packages in epel repository, but perhaps require the module from elrepo as mentioned above.
