Things are getting worse:

Your /etc/hosts file has zero to do with how DRBD behaves.

At least I can reproduce the bad behavior when adding the bug to
/etc/hosts. I think it has something todo how I address the disk. The
one volume which is working fine is configured with:
disk /dev/mapper/cc1--vienna-manager--disk--drbd

The other volume which causes the problems is configured with
disk /dev/cc1-vienna/cc-manager-templates-drbd
which is a symlink to
/dev/mapper/cc1--vienna-cc--manager--templates--drbd

So, I have no idea why, but it seems that if /etc/hosts is broken then
the symlinks are no available when DRBD starts. When after booting up is
stop/start the DRBD service, then DRBD attaches to the disks fine. Strange.

I changed drbd.conf to use the "mapper" devices instead of the symlinks.

Now after startup all but one of the volumes were attached to the local disk. The one failed with:

block drbd6: refusing attach: md-device too small, at least 2048 sectors needed for this meta-disk type
block drbd6: drbd_bm_resize called with capacity == 0
block drbd6: worker terminated
block drbd6: Terminating worker thread

After that I manually attached the device without problems.

Is this really a problem with a too small device or may it be that the device wasn't existing at all?

regards
Klaus
