My first thought (kinda off the cuff really) is this:
     Create the new server with the same name as the old master
     Install the HA binaries
     Copy the ha.cf file from the backup node to the new node
     Copy the/etc/ha.d/authkeys file form the backup server to the new 
server.
     Copy the crm configuration files over, i.e. 
/var/lib/heartbeat/crm/cib.xml and /var/lib/heartbeat/crm/cib.xml.sig
     Copy any application related config files over, i.e. apache.conf, 
/etc/init.d/mysql and so on.
Start heartbeat on the new node and it should join in with the cluster 
unless I missed something.

Good luck. Let me know how it goes. I'd be interested in knowing if I 
missed something.
