I'm really not sure that I understand the question. There are several
examples of how to set up LVS-DR, in the HOWTO, on UltraMonkey.Org, and
elsewhere. There dosn't seem to be anything particularly tricky about
your setup, so following them should be fine.
In regards to Piranah, that is a front-end to LVS developed by RH. I'm
not sure if it actually supports LVS-DR. In any case, it has its own
support lists, somewhere on redhat.com I believe, you can probably
find more piranha-savy people there.
Alternatively, you can use LVS in a viariety of ways without piranah,
and that is covered in the documention mentioned above.
