ucarp 1.3 is now available on http://www.blastwave.org/testing
This should be the 1st version of ucarp working well on Solaris too,
thanks to some patches a volunteer recently submitted.
UCARP is a freebsd version of a VRRP-like vip redundancy protocol.
See http://www.ucarp.org/project/ucarp/
Patches are:
000-patch-src-fillmac.c.diff:
This patch is needed for Solaris 8 to get a working failover.
001-ucarp-with-pid.diff:
Patch to write a PID file ofter starting of ucarp. For easier shutdown
of ucarp inside of a init script.
002-ucarp-disable-file.diff:
With this patch a non privileged (monitoring process) can write a file
to disable ucarp to invoke a failover depending not only on hardware
failure but also on service level (for example webserver) problem.
It is importend that only the monitoring process can write/remove this
disable file.
003-ucarp-solaris-if.diff:
Solaris only patch (tested on Solaris 8) to set the interface inside of
ucarp instead of the up/downscripts.
