I'm not running heartbeat at the site in question, and wasn't thrilled
about setting it up between the director and two realservers. More
importantly, Mon is generalizable to an org-wide monitoring system
(which heartbeat is not). Mon has a wider range of service check
scripts and alerts than ldirectord has and is therefore more flexible.
If somebody wanted to monitor ipvs but take action ONLY by alpha pager
(i.e. *not* modifying ipvs) then Mon would be more appropriate than
ldirectord.
