Thanks Justin, that sounds promising. But I don't see from initial browsing of the web sites whether it can be used to facilitate fail-over of other things besides virtual IP. I mean - I want a heartbeat tool that will notice that the other side is down and take over DRBD, for instance, and when the master comes back up it will notice that DRBD is already served by the slave and won't take it over without coordination. Is this possible with these tools as they come or will I have to program something myself?
