You gave the answer yourself: > set an filter in the /etc/lvm/lvm.conf > filter = ["a|sd.*|", "a|drbd.*|", "r|.*|"] See your filter matches on your logical volume which you chose to name "drbd", not just your /dev/drbd* devices. I suppose you wanted this: filter = ["a|sd.*|", "a|^/dev/drbd.*|", "r|.*|"] ... or else, keep your filter definition as is, but don't choose a volume name that contains "drbd".
