Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.


My /etc/drbd.conf file is standard:

global {usage-count no;}
common {
  protocol C;
}
resource r0 {
  on drbdtest1 {
    device    /dev/drbd0;
    disk      /dev/xendisks/drbd0;
    address   192.168.10.101:7788;
    meta-disk internal;
  }
  on drbdtest2 {
    device    /dev/drbd0;
    disk      /dev/xendisks/drbd0;
    address   192.168.10.102:7788;
    meta-disk internal;
  }
}

After create-md on both nodes I see both in Connected Secondary/Secondary
state. 
After "drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer primary r0" on one node, the
other node immediately drops the connection and enters Standalone state. 
On that node I looked in /var/log/messages:

It seems to me that a partial resync is the problem. Perhaps I can solve it
bij forcing a full synchronisation. I don't know how.

Are you using the -c switch to drbdadm to use a non-standard config file? In

that case exactly that happens.
