Folks, For the sole purpose of providing info:
We had a very specific customer demand for high availability of a Web application, plus MySQL service and data. The machines holding theses services would be out in the field, with no access whatsoever to shared storage. We implemented a two node Red Hat Cluster configuration to allow for Web Application HA, and droped in a IP resource for the MySQL service. The MySQL service itself is always on, on both hosts, configured with master<->master replication. This has been in production use for something like 20 sites, for over two years. CR.
