Thanks for the reply.  I understand.

I was merely wondering if the heartbeat-specific bits behind the SuSE
"yast heartbeat" command might be available, and in a form that was
suitable for adaptation to other OSes.  (Or are they deeply embedded into
a SLES-specific, non-adaptable, format?)

If non-SLES folk would like something similar, what proportion of this
very nice wheel would we necessarily have to re-invent, and what
proportion might we be able to re-use?
