Very frequently it is *NOT* the "original user", that "still" holds it open, but udev, or something triggered-by-udev. So double-checking the udev rules, or the "lvm global_filter" settings may help. You could instrument DRBD to log current->{pid,comm} on open and close, so you can better detect who the "someone" is in the message above. Adding a small retry loop in the script may help as well. As a side note, with DRBD 9 (which still moves too fast to be "in tree") we have the "auto-promote" feature, where no explicit promotion/demotion is necessary anymore, but DRBD (tries to) promote itself with the first "RW" opener, and demote itself once the last opener is gone.
