[ILUG] Cluster solutions

[HAMILTON,DAVID (HP-Ireland,ex2)]

Did anyone else notice that Oracle 81 Release 3 supports Oracle Parallel
Server on Linux.
This could prove interesting.....
I did see a press release from HP saying that we are porting our
MC/Serviceguard product to Linux as well.  It's a pretty good product when
it's configured right.

 Not yet. However, depending on what sort of a hurry you are in, we've
just bought 6 machines here for a "HA testing lab", so we can see what
sort of stuff works, and what doesn't. I'll know by the end of the week :)

 I've done a good bit of reading over the last while, and it seems that
SGI's "Linux FailSafe"[0] project looks useful.
