OK
so if I have an IP in the haresources file, it will be moved on failover,
but if I just delete it, to simulate failure, then heartbeat won't notice?

This isn't what I was hoping for, but it simplifies my strategy a whole lot
and at least I know what I'm dealing with.
are the status commands that heartbeat sends to the script(s) just to see
if the resource that the script controls is up|down and hence if it's safe
to do the failover, or can the status command be used to detect health too?
Thanks
