what kind of network are you using between the two servers? this is 
almost the exact same behavior i had when i was trying to get drbd to 
work over 10gig ethernet. turned out to be something in drbd didn't like 
something about the 10gig cards i had. i eventually had to change my 
network cards. what cards are you using? 1gig? 10gig? have you tried 
other cards? that is where i would look.
