I think the truth is somewhere in between. If you have a cluster it is
not that important if a node goes down (depending on how available your
services have to be).

So for our cluster-servers we have not the top-level hardware and not
the top-level support.
5 x 12 is enough for the support-level and the machines theirselves are
redundant enough in their vital parts (harddisks in raid-1,
power-support with two lines).

Same thing. Network cards very rarely do crash. And if so - failover,
repair it and failback.

I think more important than stonith is having at least two independent
heartbeat-lines.

Why is there a heartbeat-message "time has jumped back - compensating"?

Kind regards, Nils
