Can we see the output of "cat /proc/drbd"? The kernel has to statically allocate DRBD devices when the module is loaded, so if you had 3 resources configured when DRBD started and didn't specify a higher minor-count, you would not have room for a fourth. If that's the case, you'll have to stop and start DRBD to add another resource. I recommend bumping minor-count up while you're at it.
