At the considerable risk of seeming ungrateful for the tremendous piece of
work that heartbeat is, yes, I should think there's room for improvement in
the documentation.

Thank you Tobias, Dejan, and Thomas for your time and comments.

My plan then is to attempt an upgrade to the latest version of Heartbeat.
(I'm skeptical that the OpenSuSE version will install on RedHat, but I'll
give it a shot.)  (I suppose there's no reason not to compile from source,
either.)

I'll see if I can get our Web expert to arrange a way for our server to
serve up a status page in a way that he does not feel violates security
requirements.  (I wonder if it can be made available only from localhost, or
some such.)

I'm told that if I use the lsb script for apache I can perhaps get mon to
work with heartbeat to ensure that hte resource stays available.

Again, I thank you all for your suggestions, insights and comments.  You are
very kind.

Be well,

Karl
