Hi all,

i'm trying to setup a 3 nodes test cluster here with the latest 8.3 version.
What i'm experiencing is that the backup node doesn't sync at all.

When running "drbdadm --stacked up test-s" on the backup node, the sync 
doesn't happen.
In the log i can see:

--------------------------------------------------------------
[ 8228.185237] drbd1: peer( Unknown -> Primary ) conn( WFReportParams -> 
WFBitMapT ) pdsk( DUnknown -> UpToDate )

[ 8228.190687] drbd1: conn( WFBitMapT -> WFSyncUUID )

[ 8228.193603] drbd1: helper command: /sbin/drbdadm before-resync-target 
minor-1

[ 8228.196821] drbd1: helper command: /sbin/drbdadm before-resync-target 
minor-1 exit code 3 (0x300)

[ 8228.197852] drbd1: before-resync-target handler returned 3, dropping 
connection.

[ 8228.198812] drbd1: peer( Primary -> Unknown ) conn( WFSyncUUID -> 
Disconnecting ) pdsk( UpToDate -> DUnknown )

[ 8228.199925] drbd1: asender terminated
[ 8228.200467] drbd1: Terminating asender thread
[ 8228.201237] drbd1: Connection closed

--------------------------------------------------------------

For what i understand, the problem is that
  "/sbin/drbdadm before-resync-target minor-1"
should be called with the --stacked options to work properly, otherwise 
it will return an error. And if it returns an error, it disconnects from 
the primary active node, failing to work.

... or maybe i'm doing something wrong.
