Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. EC2 is the cloud computing service provided by Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html?node=201590011 Basically, I have heartbeat running on two virtual machines in the EC2 cloud. If one of them goes down, I must start a new virtual machine; the previous one no longer exists.
So I have heartbeat correctly monitoring each of the virtual machines. I'm just stuck with how to configure heartbeat to start up a new virtual machine.
