Ok.

For mirroring across a set of nodes for FT, yes.

The new HA module in Qpid requires integration with a resource manager; on 
Linux this is rgmanager (corosync is involved to manage the cluster itself, but 
it's not directly involved with Qpid). Currently there is no integration with a 
resource manager on Windows clusters. It's probably not a gigantic amount of 
work to get it there, but it's work that is needed.
