Bcc'ng PSARC as this is OT. We should continue this discussion in
nwam-discuss at opensolaris.org.

We havn't talked about using NWAM for things like that. For phase 0
the functionality is just not rich enough to do anything useful in that
area. But in phase 1 there are some hooks which might allow you to do
some sort of slightly warm standby. Read the design on
opensolaris.org/os/projects/nwam and comment on
nwam-discuss at opensolaris.org if you have further questions.
