My recommendation for HA PostgreSQL is to use two servers with one of
those nifty HA options, and let the postmaster on the taking-over
machine recover the database just like after a crash.  Also, you'll
be wanting to use slony (www.slony.info).

If you're asking whether Postgres has something akin to Oracle's RAC,
the answer is "not yet".
