Terry,
You don't need LVS unless you want to run both (apache) nodes at the
same time.
You could just have Linux-HA (heartbeat) with a STONITH device.
If your using sharred storage then when something fails, shoot the other
node in the head and start the services on the other box.

Hello,
I have been going over the documentation all weekend and am unsure if
LVS can do what I want it to do. Or if so, I must be missing something
somewhere.
Basically, I have a Proliant DL 380 cluster system. Two nodes, and a
scsi storage device. What I want to do is to have High Availability
failover, so that if for some reason one machine fails completely then
node 2 kicks in and takes over. The important apps that run on node 1
is Apache webserver and MySQL. Database synchronization
notwithstanding, is it possible for LVS to do this? If so, can someone
point me to which documentation describes how to do this?
I appreciate any help in pointing me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance
