Look into cfengine... or rsync (I prefer the later)

Subject: RE: Clustering options
I'm working on bringing ours up. Using RHEL 3 Cluster Suite, shared
SCSI storage, no GFS. HP DL380s with an MSA500. DNS will be replicated
between heads, rather than failed over. Ditto NIS. Apache will
probably end up on a front-end server or two serving from an NFS mount
from the cluster. We're still stuck with MS Exchange for now, so the
local postfix just relays logwatch reports to me.
The Samba/NFS services have built-in support, and MySQL was a piece of
cake to set up. Apache was simple as well. The biggest problem I'm
running into is sync'ing the config files between heads. Make a change
on one, make sure you copy it to the other. That and Samba reads the
local CUPS info to share printers, so CUPS just runs on both heads -
again, if I add a printer to one head, add it to the other as well.

Subject: Clustering options
I'm looking for some insight from folks working with clustering
of RHEL systems.
My clustering requirements are pretty simple -- I'd like
seamless fail-over or load-balancing of things like sendmail mail
relays, apache instances, DNS resolvers, etc. Most of this stuff could
be accomplished with an IP load-balancer of some sort, probably, but I'm
wondering what the thoughts out there are on things like Redhat Cluster
Suite or Veritas Cluster Server?
Any thoughts welcome, thanks.
