Thank you for reporting the issue. The kmod-drbd9x package with the secureboot-key has been built and will be syncing to our mirrors shortly.

kmod-drbd9x-9.2.13-5.el9_6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

The updated package was picked up, successfully installed, and the modprobe + drbd start were successful.

Thank you for the quick fix and I believe this should be resolved.
