heartbeat - Heartbeat subsystem for High-Availability Linux

Description:

heartbeat is a basic high-availability subsystem for Linux-HA.
It will run scripts at initialization, and when machines go up or down.
This version will also perform IP address takeover using gratuitous ARPs.
It supports "n-node" clusters with significant capabilities for managing
resources and dependencies.

In addition it continues to support the older release 1 style of
2-node clustering.

It implements the following kinds of heartbeats:
        - Serial ports
        - UDP/IP multicast (ethernet, etc)
        - UDP/IP broadcast (ethernet, etc)
        - UDP/IP heartbeats
        - "ping" heartbeats (for routers, switches, etc.)
           (to be used for breaking ties in 2-node systems)
