It occurs to me that I've yet to see an actual answer to the original 
poster's question.  I've seen lots of dicussion about DRBD, heartbeat, 
and pacemaker/corosync - but not a single alternative.

Now I use DRBD/heartbeat/pacemaker myself - and it pretty much works for 
me - but at the same time it's also somewhat overkill and complicated 
for what I do (hot-failover of a couple of Xen VMs), and I'm somewhat 
curious about whether there are alternatives.

So far, in my own searching, all I've found is the Remus package that 
comes with newer versions of Xen - but Remus seems awfully immature, and 
I've yet to come across anybody using it in production (if I'm wrong, 
can somebody please pipe up).

Is it really the case that DRBD/heartbeat/pacemaker/corosync is really 
the only solution in this space?
