I am in the process of converting a number of CentOS machines to

We have several machines which use Heartbeat and DRBD and these
packages were available for install from the default repository in
CentOS 5.5 but are not available in SL 5.5. I thought, except for a
few extra packages SL adds to their build, both were recompilations of
RHEL and would have the same base packages available.
I know there are additional repositories that can be enabled which
would provide Heartbeat and DRBD but I am confused as to why there is
a difference in the base packages.

are all dated 2010 but suggest that someone was working on this.
Yes--SL staff were working on this addition at the request of my group.
Currently we are using the ones from atrpms under SL5 but we've asked
them to add it to base SL for SL6.
