Great.

Yes, sort of. The ultramonkey package just installs the heartbeat
and ldirectord packages (it's a metapackage only). Therefore if
you install etch and then install heartbeat-2 and ldirectord-2
you've basically got the same thing. Make sure you install the -2
versions of these packages, otherwise you'll get the older version
1 - version 2 reads v1 configuration fine, and we saw bugs here
with v1 that are generally speaking fixed in v2.

All the config files etc from ultramonkey work just fine - put
them in /etc/ha.d as usual. Our config is based on the "high
capacity, high availability and load balancing" example from
http://www.ultramonkey.org/3/topologies/.

Cheers,

Matthew
