linstor-csi restores a snapshot on one node and autoplaces the other
replicas. In LINSTOR v1.33.3 the restored volume definition has no
DRBD_INITIALIZED flag, so the initial UpToDate race is still open, and
Linstor/Drbd/InitialUptoDateOn, copied from the source volume through
the snapshot, names the node that won it for the source. When a
replica is autoplaced on that node, the empty new volume wins the
race: it gets a random current UUID and a fresh filesystem, and goes
StandAlone against the restored replica. A pod attached there sees an
empty volume.
Backport the upstream fix, released in LINSTOR v1.34.0, which sets the
flag on a restore unless the resource definition asks for new metadata
through ForceInitialSyncPermanent, as a backup does. Nothing wins the
race any more, and an autoplaced replica resyncs from the restored one
like any replica added to an existing volume.
