But the problem doesn't occur with the "local" end, it's with the "recieving" end (which may be the same thing, but mostly it's not, since I tend to reboot the secondary node more).

The problem occurs on the node running `nbd-server' in userspace and not nessicarily having "nbd" support.

"nbd1" is a remote nbd device to the secondary server, which then becomes highly unusable. I'm not sure what you're attempting to convey to me, as the server that is running raid1_resync (reading from nbd0, which cooresponds with a local nbd-client binding) is perfectly usable in the example I gave, but the remote node is not...

Oh! Sorry, I got your systems confused. In that case, you are definitely
having a SCSI RAID controller or driver issue. Please forgive the confusion.
