Hi -

My primary node crashed today. I have had to reboot it but now it reports unclean metadata. :(

# cat /proc/drbd
version: 8.4.3 (api:1/proto:86-101)
GIT-hash: 89a294209144b68adb3ee85a73221f964d3ee515 build by root@dnfs-2, 2013-03-28 16:00:10

No usable activity log found. Do you need to create-md?

# drbdadm create-md r0
You want me to create a v08 style flexible-size internal meta data block.
There appears to be a v08 flexible-size internal meta data block
already in place on /dev/sdb at byte offset 4999945908224
Do you really want to overwrite the existing v08 meta-data?
[need to type 'yes' to confirm] no

I didn't confirmed the create-md process because I'm afraid that it will discard all of the data saved on the disk, right?

And now, the icing on the cake: I currently have no secondary node due to an hardware failure i faced a few days ago!

Is there still a chance that I can get my data back online on that "standalone" drbd device?

Thanks in anticipation and best regards,
