Dual primary isn't really needed (but its very nice to have).
If you use one drbd-resource per vm, you need the dual-primary only during the 
migration.
You can also run single-master that is exported via iscsi/aoe and mounted to 
all nodes, cluster filesystem on top and you also get an extendible vm-
platform. But then you will have vms writing over network to the other node 
through iscsi which is writing back to your node via drbd...

Have fun,

Arnold
