Hey Phil,
I've recently been evaluating all of the above. Wackamole + Spread
have so far worked the best for me (distributing a number of VIP's
across a cluster of HAProxy machines with, allowing failover).
Heartbeat didn't seem to work well in my environment, and I had a lot
of trouble getting ucarp configured just-right.
Not sure what environment you're in, but we run HAProxy with Pacemaker
on RHEL, and it works pretty much flawlessly. In some cases we do
active/passive VIPs the way most HA systems do, but others we use BGP to
advertise /32 routes into the network and use that to get traffic to our
load balancers. Works nicely, especially since not everything has to be
on the same VLAN to support it.
