As far as I know it's from VA Linux's redundant server system (look on
freshmeat). Heartbeat is supposed to check for other heartbeat servers,
on is elected as the master and checks periodically to see that the
other machines are up, assignis IPs from a pool to the machines are up.
Maybe if it
what is heartbeat what would cause it to fail?
