Hi,

I was trying to understand how Heartbeat actually works. I found out that 
Heartbeat provides HA at a system level rather than application level, meaning 
the Virtual IP is moved to backup system only on a system-down-scenario and not 
when application monitored goes down. I verified this. I had configured httpd 
in my haresources file and I manually stopped httpd using  "service httpd 
stop". Although this stops httpd service, Heartbeat doesn't recognize this. ..!!
But when I stop heartbeat or bring down my machine, Backup comes up and starts 
httpd. Is this the correct scenario.. if so, please let me know why I should 
provide a script in resources.d/ to start, stop and find status of the 
application. Also, how can I achieve application level HA using heartbeat..!
Thanks in advance.. :)


Regards,
Ravikiran N
