High availability of a process between two Linux servers
Hello,
I would like to create a script that will maintain HA/failover of a process between two servers.
I wanted to send a continuous heartbeat message through a script to another server when everything is working fine, if a process has gone down then the same message should be sent another server then the slave server should bring up the process.
I have got no clue how to achieve this, please advice!
Thanks.

NAME
heartbeat - Heartbeat subsystem for High-Availability Linux
DESCRIPTION
heartbeat is a basic heartbeat subsystem for Linux-HA. It will run scripts at initialisation, and when machines go up or down. This version
will also perform IP address takeover using gratuitous ARPs. It works correctly for a 2-node configuration, and is extensible to larger
configurations.
It implements the following kinds of heartbeats:
o UDP/IP broadcast;
o UDP/IP multicast;
o UDP/IP unicast;
o Bidirectional Serial Rings ("raw" serial ports) -- this type is deprecated and should no longer be used;
o special "ping" heartbeats for routers, etc. -- this type has been superseded by functionality in pacemaker() and should no longer be
used.
Comprehensive documentation on heartbeat is available in the Heartbeat User's Guide. If this documentation is not installed on your system,
it can be found at http://linux-ha.org/.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported by heartbeat:
-d
Increment debugging level. Higher levels are more verbose.
-r
Reload heartbeat. This option is functionally identical to sending a running heartbeat process a HUP signal. If the configuration has
not changed, then this option is essentially a no-op. If ha.cf(5) or authkeys(5) has changed, then heartbeat will re-read these files
and update its configuration.
This option may not be used together with -R.
-k
Kill (stop) heartbeat.
-s
Report heartbeat status.
-R
Heartbeat restart exec flag (internal use only). May not be used with -r.
-C
Heartbeat current resource state for restart (internal use only). Only valid with -R.
-V
Print out heartbeat version.
Note that most of these options are used for supporting the heartbeat init script, which provides the conventional start, stop, status and
restart options (among others). It is recommended to use this rather than invoking the heartbeat command directly.
