HeartBeat v2 allows creating custom and powerful OCF[1] scripts which can manage a service and monitorize it in. In case a service crashes HeartBeat tries to start it during some time, and in case of no success then the service is started in other node.
ok, looks like whaht i have read was based on v1.
what if network connection to the active node has failed? can the hearbeat monitor be located on a third monitoring host that really has vision on how the service looks like from outside? if not, i'm not still convinced.
That is not inherently part of Heartbeat, but it would be trivial to script using the OCF functionality Inaki mentioned.
