What should I use to configure a failover cluster under CentOS? Is there Red Hat Cluster Suite or something like that?
Thank you in advance.

in general, 'heartbeat'. RHCS (Red Hat Cluster Service) is some wrappers around heartbeat, and rather a finicky control panel for it all.
you'll need sharable storage (SAN, dualport SCSI, etc), or drbd replication, or similar for any disk resources that need to be accessed by either side of the failover cluster.

It's RedHat Cluster Suite, not Service, and it's not wrappers around heartbeat.
In answer to Guiseppe's question, the RedHat Cluster Suite is available as part of CentOS and works great. Whether RHCS will help you or not, I cannot say due the fairly vague description of your requirements.
