I've been attending a Sun workshop yesterday (about Solaris 10, 
zones/containers,
and HA). There's a number of close similiarities between HA on linux,
and Linux paravirtualization technologies with Solaris zones/containers.
Instead of vhashify (and symlinks) they're using loopback filesystem (LOFS)
to minimize space for shared resources. I'm not sure why they chose
that way, and didn't go for simple symlinks.
