Are you using drbd9 with a 3 nodes replication?
could you please share the drbd config?

of the DRBD resource that gets exported to the hypervisor.

No raid volumes?
are you creating a single drbd resource for each storage disk?  (In
example, in a server with 12 disks are you creating 12 drbd resources?)

i would like to create a raidz2 on each node but the resulting volume is
not seen as block device thus can't be used as drbd resource

I can create a raid6 with mdadm, use that volume for drbd and put zfs on
top of it but there are too many moving parts stacked together,  that would
be a perfect reciepe for a huge mess
