Hi Gabor,

In the three satellites (one of them is controller/satellite) the configuration files are the same:


cat /etc/drbd.d/linstor-resources.res
include "/var/lib/linstor.d/*.res";


cat /etc/drbd.conf
# You can find an example in  /usr/share/doc/drbd.../drbd.conf.example

include "drbd.d/global_common.conf";
include "drbd.d/*.res";


But the error only happens in the controller/satellite node

Yes, it is the same. I regret the duplication.


Regards,

Daniel

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
