    Drew Skinner [dskinner@blueprint.org] suggested
    Sun Performance Suite.

    Reggie Beavers [reggiebeavers@fstha.com] suggested
    Free High Availability Software for Solaris

    David Foster [foster@ncmir.ucsd.edu] noted Sun Cluster
    is complex, and that I should look at Veritas Cluster.

    Gary Chambers [gwc@ll.mit.edu] said it works well for
    him with shared storage.

    Gary P Carr [gcarr@lanl.gov] noted I should get a detailed
    quote for -all- the pieces needed.

    Thanks to all for your help - I have some more reading to do :-)
