Hi!

I have three-node configuration.
(Like this 
http://www.howtoforge.com/drbd-8.3-third-node-replication-with-debian-etch)

When I run

drbdadm --stacked down r0-U
and
mkfs.ext3 /dev/drbd0

and run
drbdadm --stacked up r0-U

an error

drbdadm --stacked up r0-U
10: Failure: (119) No valid meta-data signature found.

         ==> Use 'drbdadm create-md res' to initialize meta-data area. <==

Command 'drbdsetup 10 disk /dev/drbd0 /dev/drbd0 internal --set-defaults 
--create-device' terminated with exit code 10

If I run

drbdadm --stacked create-md r0-U

an error

md_offset 536847597568
al_offset 536847564800
bm_offset 536831180800

Found ext3 filesystem
    524265236 kB data area apparently used
    524249200 kB left usable by current configuration

Device size would be truncated, which
would corrupt data and result in
'access beyond end of device' errors.
You need to either
    * use external meta data (recommended)
    * shrink that filesystem first
    * zero out the device (destroy the filesystem)
Operation refused.

Command 'drbdmeta 10 v08 /dev/drbd0 internal create-md' terminated with 
exit code 40
drbdadm create-md r0-U: exited with code 40

Help me please
