Thanks, will fix that. Yes, the syntax got changed, looks like this was
not reflected everywhere.

yes.

You used a LVM pool, so yes, you get a full sync. Use a LVM-thinpool and
the full sync gets skipped.

No, if something needs fixing on the lower level, you then use lower
level commands (drbdadm/drbdsetup). But this should not happen in the
first place. You could try to restart the linstor-satellite service and
check if it recovers.
