Hi Etienne, One year ago I built HA cluster based on heartbeat and ocfs2. The cluster contains two Dell servers and one storage running in a cluster mode and directly connected to the servers via SCSI cables(DAS). The system is powered by SLES 10.2 and it's still in production. The HA cluster contains several resource groups like Apache + VIP, MySQL + VIP, Oracle XE + VIP and our Java based application. The application like Apache, MySQL and Oracle XE use the same storage but they have different per nodes log directory, pid files and some other files like listener.ora. I use OCFS2CDSL to make one file or directory unique per node. I used the Heartbeat GUI application to configure the cluster and now I use it as a cluster management tool. Let me know if you need more details.
