direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.

Small precision : it's only on one ressource (every other is fine) :

vm-115-disk-1 role:Secondary
  disk:Inconsistent
  vm4 connection:StandAlone
  vm7 connection:StandAlone

This ressource isn't anymore defined on 'vm4' and 'vm7' nodes.

Right, sorry :
# cat /proc/drbd
version: 9.0.3-1 (api:2/proto:86-111)
GIT-hash: a14cb9c3818612dfb8c3288db28a591d5a0fc2a6 build by root at nora,

Transports (api:14): tcp (1.0.0)

Tried a few things :
# drbdadm adjust vm-115-disk-1
'vm-115-disk-1' not defined in your config (for this host).

# drbdadm down vm-115-disk-1
'vm-115-disk-1' not defined in your config (for this host).

# drbdmanage unassign vm-115-disk-1 vm5
Error: Object not found

It seems that neither drbdadm nor drbdmanage doesn't anymore know this
ressource. Sad :-(
