Glad it works reasonably well. That's useful to know. Thanks.
Realistically, the development effort available from spare-time volunteers
(such as me) for Solaris/heartbeat development is very small. So rather
than try to support lots of different ways that heartbeat could be built
on Solaris, we perhaps ought to recommend CSW as our preferred way. What
do you, from your recent experience), think?
(Even then, the support won't be great, but at least we can say that this
method has a reasonable likelihood of working, and that there are a few of
us who at least have a little experience with it.)
If you come across further problems, keep reporting...
On the negative side, I ought to point out that I've never yet got
"BasicSanityCheck" to pass its tests on Solaris. On the positive side,
simple "IPaddr" configurations seem to work OK.
Within the last few months a much bigger question has arisen which I have
not yet followed up. The v2 cluster management has now been abstracted
out of heartbeat into a separate project called "Pacemaker". I have no
idea how well (if at all) that works on non-Linux systems.
Best wishes.
