Assuming all the application uses Single instance mysql or apache service, Yes. For multiple instances though, you need to check further. You may lose a sessions during the transition, I am not too sure. Again depends how application handles it. Don't know. > Also I heard about Heartbeat and DRBD.

Adding couple of NIC and bonding them will help further the high availability However, ir you plan to add more nodes to this cluster, then consider RHCS as that would supprt 16 nodes IIRC. And oh, RHCS requires good working fencing -- power or management port and/or storage. Don't leave home without it! Regards, Rajagopal
