[DRBD-user] What does "block drbd0: BAD! sector= .... cstate=SyncSource" want to tell me?

Hi,

I just had to reboot a system that is configured as the "secondary" for 3 DRBD devices.
After the reboot, connection to the primary system was established and re-synchronisation started.

Some scary messages were emitted during that process - on the primary:

And on the (rebooted) secondary:

Now I wonder: What does drbd0 want to tell me with those "BAD! ..." messages?

It seems to have completed the synchronization successfully. Also, no "read errors" where
reported in on either host.

Should I be concerned about the data integrity, now?
