Assuming all the application uses Single instance mysql or apache
service, Yes. For multiple instances though, you need to check
further.
You may lose a sessions during the transition, I am not too sure.
Again depends how application handles it. Don't know.

Well, if you want HA filesystem too, then GFS on top CLVM on top of
DRBD makes sense.
But DRBD HA should be simpler for two node.
Adding couple of NIC and bonding them will help further the high availability
However, ir you plan to add more nodes to this cluster, then consider
RHCS as that would supprt 16 nodes IIRC.
And oh, RHCS requires good working fencing -- power or management port
and/or storage. Don't leave home without it!
