It should work on RedHat as well.

Compaq is backing several clustering projects.
They have the Cluster Infrastructure for Linux (CI)
(http://ci-linux.sourceforge.net/) project and the Single System Image
Cluster for Linux (SSI) (http://ssic-linux.sourceforge.net/). In
addition they're part of the effort to create a common framework for
cluster software for linux.
There are aslo a bunch of other available cluster software, see:
http://vestinternett.no/~ragnark/ha-software.txt
My personal preferanse is heartbeat (www.linux-ha.org), because it's
small and easy.
