Just in case any of you vms cluster managers missed it,
IBM can now do failover.....

"WebSphere Application Server 6 cuts downtime and failover
from five minutes to a matter of seconds, an unprecedented
boost in continuity and performance for an IBM software server."

"After detecting an outage, WAS 6 redirects data to a fail-over
server within the same data center, or via the Internet to a
completely different location, if needed.
Before, administrators had to manually reboot systems."
