I am doing exactly that (w/o LVM), using the latest versions from 
backports for HB/DRBD/vServer on a hand rolled kernel.

See my mail in the archives here for a needed fix of the drbddisk
script when used with vservers here:
http://list.linux-vserver.org/archive?mss:835:200803:cgehldioambmojimggpf

How you start up the vservers very much depends on your scenario,
we wrote a (very simple and in need of enhancement before I would dare
thrust it upon the world) HB resource agent that fires up all vservers
under heartbeat control. We use a common big drbd resource and filesystem
for all guests (and their configs), other people seem to prefer one
resource per guest. 

Regards,

Christian
