they are both the same thing, in general.

i am not sure which is easier to configure.

the redhat cluster suite is easier to install on RHEL (and thus also in CentOS). heartbeat comes as part of SLES(10?), and is easier to install there.

Hello,

I'm beginning to give up on making Linux-HA's heartbeat work for my environment (CentOS x86_64) and am wondering what other option have I got to help me: 1. Use IPVS to maintain a cluster of servers serving virtual IP, either master/slave or load-balanced. 2. Use DRBD in master/slave fashion to keep a home-grown application highly-available.

The first thing I stumbled upon is RedHat Cluster Suite (http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/centos_linux_guides/centos_cluster_configuration_and_management/ ), from which I also saw some packages on my CentOS servers.

I've never heard of it before and am just starting to dig its docs, but if someone here can confirm/deny that this is a possible route to take it might save me some time or doubts.

Thanks,

--Amos
