That is okay, the .14 is LINBIT's drbdmanage (server + cli). utils are
up to date, and drbdmanage-proxmox (the plugin glue between PM and DM)
is also at the latest version.

Both diskless? Did you loose your LVs? Check what
/etc/drbd.d/drbdctrl.res specifies and what you have (lvs). Fix that
first with the usual drbdadm commands. Only if the control volume is
happy it makes sense to do something involving drbdmanage.
