[DRBD-user] LINSTOR: read-only DRBD volume after node restart

Hello all,

I set up storage for Kubernetes using this article: 
https://vitobotta.com/2019/08/07/linstor-storage-with-kubernetes

Everything works fine unless first reboot of the cluster node. After 
system restart I am not able to mount any existing DRBD device in RW mode.

root at worker1:~# mount /dev/drbd1003 /mnt
mount: /mnt: WARNING: device write-protected, mounted read-only.

I think this happens due to some synchronization issues between cluster 
node. Have noticed that linstor volume list shows different number of 
allocated bytes on different node members:

LINSTOR ==> v l

At the moment the only working solution to fix the problem I have 
invented is to create new resource and copy data from read-only mount to 
the new one.

How to fix it properly?

Thanks,

Vadim
