Hello, We have encountered the following issue in our production environment: A new RBD Image was created within an existing pool, and its status is reported as "unknown" in GWCLI. Based on our tests, this does not appear to cause operational issues, but we would like to investigate the root cause. No relevant information regarding this issue was found in the logs.

[replicated_xxxx/xxxx_lun_new (Unknown, 13.0T)] The image (xxxx_lun_new) is provisioned to multiple ESXi hosts, mounted, and formatted with VMFS6. The datastore is writable and readable by the hosts. There is a change in the block size of the RBD Image: the older RBD Images use a 4 MiB block size, while the new RBD Image uses a 512 KiB block size.
