What is your clustering software and what is the configuration? Also 
post your DRBD configuration and the output from cat /proc/drbd during 
each stage of your testing which reproduces the issue.

Maybe post some kernel logs too would be helpful. Simply switching 
pri/sec on DRBD won't cause a node to go outdated, unless you split 
brain the environment.
