Hi,<br>
<br>
so you're building an active-active cluster via WAN? That requires guts.<br>
<br>
Do the services run on physical hardware or in virtual machines? In the<br>
latter case, it should be quite possible to implement fencing through<br>
the virtualization layer (vmware was mentioned earlier in this thread,<br>
but nothing really specific).<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Felix<br>
