You might want to look at a product called "astribank" made by Xorcom, which does a pretty good job of giving redundancy on E1. In their redundant asterisk setups, they use drbd to mirror configuration and data between asterisk hosts.

Because of this, I would like to know (if someone can advise me): 1) If I did modification on the configuration, how this will be applied to the other machine? 2) I am going to use E1s, so what is the method to be able to let the calls go for other Asterisk machine if first one is down (due to maintenance or upgrade)? Is there a switch or something can help in this? Thanks for the help in advance.
