Using RHEL + RHCS + GFS, you can setup an active/passive clustering. I have presented this setup in PostgreSQL Summit: http://www.gunduz.org/download.php?dlid=142 > or if either PGCluster or Slony1 have advantages or drawbacks etc. Slony-I is also a good choice for replication. You can use pgpool as a frontend to Slony-I, if you want. I don't think that pgCluster will act well under high load (well, it is more than a "thought"...) So, I'd ignore pgCluster for now and go on with Slony-I and/or RHCS.
