From: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenb...@linbit.com> The command line parameter the kernel module uses to communicate the device minor to userland helper is flawed in a way that the device indentifier "minor-%d" is being truncated to minors with a maximum of 5 digits.
But DRBD 8.4 allows 2^20 == 1048576 minors, thus a minimum of 7 digits must be supported. Reported by Veit Wahlich on drbd-dev.
