Here's what I'm trying to do: I have a "farm" of 8 servers. For each
of my customers there are 2 virtual servers (nodes) dispersed
throughout the farm. I want to run an instance of heartbeat for each
customer so that when I add/remove new customers it doesn't impact the
other ones at the heartbeat level.

I could run heartbeat inside the virtual servers, but then when
failover occurs I need to reconfigure the network, something that I
would rather not allow from inside my virtual servers.

If I were to modify heartbeat to be able to change the config dir,
would I run into problems running more than one heartbeat (assuming I
use different UDP ports)? Are there some IPC mechanisms used (shared
memory, ...) that could be messed up by running multiple instances?


Thanks,

Patrick
