I am doing some testing with drbd9 and drbdmanage and am seeing some behaviour that I do not understand.

I have three nodes in a cluster. Node names are kvm09, kvm10 and kvm11. kvm09 is the leader. All three systems are up to date Centos 7.3 with drbd 9.0.6, drbd-utils 8.9.10 and drbdmanage 0.98.2

If I shutdown a node, drbdmanage commands executed on the leader now take a "long time" to complete.

For instance if I shutdown kvm11 and run on the leader (kvm09) I see

[root@kvm09 ~]# time drbdmanage role
Operation completed successfully
leader

real    0m42.975s
user    0m0.084s
sys     0m0.019s

The same operation prior to shutting down kvm11 (times are similar on all three nodes)

[root@kvm09 ~]# time drbdmanage role
Operation completed successfully
leader

real    0m0.120s
user    0m0.088s
sys     0m0.031s

On the non-leader node (kvm10) in this scenario the commands always execute "quickly", but do not show up to date information.

For instance on the leader (which is correct and takes a long time)
[root@kvm09 ~]# time drbdmanage list-nodes
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Name | Pool Size | Pool Free | | State |
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| kvm09.devnull.net.nz | 1668076 | 1114992 | | ok | | kvm10.devnull.net.nz | 1668076 | 1069948 | | ok | | kvm11.devnull.net.nz | 1668076 | 1069948 | | OFFLINE |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

real    0m37.045s
user    0m0.079s
sys     0m0.026s

But on kvm10 (which is incorrect and does NOT take a long time)
[[root@kvm10 ~]# time drbdmanage list-nodes
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Name | Pool Size | Pool Free | | State |
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| kvm09.devnull.net.nz | 1668076 | 1114992 | | ok | | kvm10.devnull.net.nz | 1668076 | 1069948 | | ok | | kvm11.devnull.net.nz | 1668076 | 1069948 | | ok |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

real    0m0.101s
user    0m0.071s
sys     0m0.025s

Is this expected behaviour in this type of situation?

Mike
