Define commercial; Piranha is Open Source, however you can buy it bundled,
which is convenient.
On Linux, it is at least sensible to mention Linux FailSafe (Open Source) too,
as well as SteelEye's commercial LifeKeeper product.

The Oracle 9i Real Application Cluster _is_ fully functional on Linux (there
is a certified SuSE Linux/Compaq/Oracle setup) and has been for a few months;
OPS has been available longer than that.
