I don't know about DRDB, but I have implemented Oracle Clusterware to provide high availability (active/passive) for Oracle (10.2) databases. There's a good document along with scripts here:

http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/products/rac/zip/sifo_action_scripts.zip

In addition you can always add Data Guard to such a configuration, other list members have posted about workarounds if you're using SE.

Hope this helps,

Martin
