Our current DRBD version is 8.0.16. We are constrained by the linux kernel version we are using to upgrade to latest drbd version.
 
In this version after 70 - 80 failovers, we see that on board that becomes cluster-primary FSCK -fy fixes some inodes.
This change in inodes is not being replicated to standby board.
If we perform failover at this stage, standby board that becomes primary shows file corruption.
File Corruption => Content of one file is seen in another file.
 
Some one can help us with DRBD version which fixed this sync issue.
 
Solution:
In Run Level 3 we start a script to check the status of DRBD. If it is not in expected state then we run recovery. This change helped us clock 500+ failovers without any issue.
Version 8.2.5 and up seems to have verify to address this issue. I run the verify regularly and before any planned switchover (that safes a lot of bandwidth compared to a full sync). But that's not available in the version you need to use.
