Hi Daniel,

    The external command sent the following error information:
>     no resources defined!
>
>
> But the resource definition file is there:
>
> /var/lib/linstor.d/vm-100-disk-1.res
>

The error message basically says that DRBD could not find the resource file.
So you verified that the .res file generated by Linstor does exist. That's
a good start. But please also check if on that one satellite DRBD is
configured to look for those resource files generated by Linstor.
Usually you should have in /etc/drbd.conf a line something like
  include "/var/lib/drbd.d/*.res";

as well as in /etc/drbd.d/linstor-resources.res
  include "/var/lib/linstor.d/*.res";

If one of these entries is missing, DRBD will simply not look for the .res
files generated by Linstor.

By the way - is this problem the same as the other thread in this mailing
list?
The title of this one is
   [DRBD-user] Error message: Failed to create meta-data for DRBD volume
and the one I am referring to now is
   [DRBD-user] Failed to create meta-data for DRBD volume
