I want to build a highly available cluster using HP DLx servers on an  
Equallogic iSCSI Storage Area Network (SAN).

One of my first concerns is regarding drivers. For instance, I  
currently plan to use the QLogic Host Bus Adapter (HBA) QLA4010-C.  
This adapter allows boot from SAN in addition to offloading the tcp/ 
ip workload from the cpu.

QLogic makes certain their driver stays built in to the RedHat  
kernel. Does that mean it would also likely automatically be  
supported in the TSL kernel?

If not, how likely would it be for the Trustix team to add support  
for that HBA going forward?

Second, I haven’t found any good posts in the archives re: building  
Highly Available Clusters (H-A Clusters) using Trustix. Could anyone  
point me in the right direction here? I’ll be happy to share my  
experience with this project for others to benefit from, but I’m  
hoping to find some initial information to get started. For instance,  
is there any type of H-A Clustering support built-in to TSL? If not,  
any ideas what is likely needed to make this work?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
