know this is feasible and the best route.

OK, I see now. Regardless, you need prim/prim then. The shared storage IS the DRBD resource. You need it to be the same on both nodes to be able to live migrate or even fail over. You could however also use DRBD to serve as shared storage for the config files. It makes sense to have this information the same on both nodes. Ensuring unique access is established by, as mentioned, cluster software. The KVM resource (in case of Pacemaker) will have to be configured to be able to run uniquely on ONE node.
