It's just a matter of design, the way you have it setup atm will not work
of course. If you have them set as in my example:

group g_drbd0 p_lvm_drbd0 p_fs_clust1 p_vip_clust1 p_mysql_001
group g_drbd1 p_lvm_drbd1 p_fs_clust2 p_vip_clust2 p_mysql_002
.
.
.
group g_drbd99 p_lvm_drbd99 p_fs_clust100 p_vip_clust100 p_mysql_100

then each mysql instance gets its own VIP instead of shared one as in your
case. Then during migration you move the group and the backing drbd device
will get promoted to master on the other node and the whole group will
follow.

There are many ways to skin the cat.
