[LinuxFailSafe] Does Linuxfailsafe work also without shared disks ?

Hello,


today we have a NT Cluster with two Oracle Databases, one on both machines. 
Now we plan to migrate to linux.
Because the Raid array is a single point of failure, isn't it, we would like to
have two independent machines, without shared disk, but with the two databases
that are replicated in master/master mode. In case of failure of one machine, the
database should migrate to the other machine ( in this case the DB is already
there but the IP-Adress must migrate and the listener where the clients
connect,should start )

Does Linuxfailsafe support such a configuration ?

Do we need to have special NIC's to get a ip different ip address for every
resource or do we need as many NICs as we have resources ?

Thank you
Andreas Moroder
