We call them "primary" and "secondary".

That is perfectly expected behavior. Imagine a resync from the primary
that, for some time, makes the secondary inconsistent (see what Lars
already told you). Would not make sense to mount that one... Error codes
are limited, "Wrong medium type" is the one that makes most sense.

For DRBD9 it is possible to mount a secondary RO when there is no
primary.
