Furthermore, if your Primary is the Sync Target, i.e. its local disk is inconsistent, and it loses the connection to the UpToDate data, then there is no sane way that DRBD can treat an incoming write request. That's why you typically want a reboot, as nothing good can come from an inconsistent standalone primary. HTH, Felix
