Does 'db0' resolve to a correct IP address? If not, then you probably
want either fix that or use remote-addr option as well. I saw that you
can ping/ssh that container, but it is not clear did you use 'db0' name
for that or IP address.

You can use check_mode=relaxed crmsh userpref to downgrade that error to
a warning until it is fixed.

BTW, pacemaker cib accepts any meta attributes (and that is very
convenient way for me to store some 'meta' information), while crmsh
limits them to a pre-defined list. While that is probably fine for
novices, that limits some advanced usage scenarios, that's why I
disabled that check by a patch for my builds.

It would better look for meta attributes 'similar' to a known ones, f.e.
target_role vs target-role, and warn about them only.
