GNBD
but i think all i need ist DRBD and Heartbeat, isn't it?
Correct.


Just remember, if something goes wrong in such a way that the domain is
active on both nodes at the same time with read/write access to the
filesystem, you *will* *destroy* the filesystem and will need to restore
from backup. No amount of fscking will help you.

Sounds like you got some experience with such a setup. Do you think a cluster like this is ready for the productive use? Is Xen HVM fast enough to host a MSSQL Server (20 Users)?
