There is actually a lot more to it than that. There are several directories you will need to have shared between the two hosts such as the indexes and cobblers directories. You will have to ensure taskomatic and rhnsearchd are only running on one host at a time. There are a few mentions of this in the Red Hat satellite 5 documentation but it doesn't go into great detail. Finally keep in mind if your external DB is an newer version of PostgreSQL than the client version on the spacewalk servers remember to update the JDBC driver on the client to match it.
Also why UCARP I know the BSD guys like it because the BSD license conflict with Cisco's settlement with the IEEE on VRRP infringing on Cisco's HSRP copyrights, but that does not effect the GPL licensed implementations of VRRP so keepalived is a far more robust implementation. the honest truth is the BSD developers didn't do their research before adding VRRP into the Kernel if they had they would have realized that the settlement makes it incompatible with the clauses in the BSD and Apache licenses which allow you to create proprietary forks of the code.
