That depends on what you mean with "HA cluster", I guess. What do you want to do? What kind of systems are you doing failover for? Do you want load balancing with that? What kind of systems do you want to balance load on? Stateless web servers? Do you want weighting as well? For example, heartbeat from linux-ha.org is in the ports system under sysutils/heartbeat. I don't know if it's up to date with the version at linux-ha, though, but the linux-ha web site says their system runs on FreeBSD. OpenBSD's CARP has been ported to FreeBSD if you want to do failover for firewalls with pf. There are many load balancers that can run on top of FreeBSD. -- MC, http://hack.org/mc/
