Thanks folks - I got the new v.8 RPMS and and working with them now.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I reported last week that I couldn't run the GUI and export the
display to my workstation. 

In addition to the XFree86-libs RPM, I needed to install the main
XFree86 RPM, (but not an XServer or fonts). Now that I've done that, I
can run the failsafe GUI on the node dru1a and export it to my
workstation. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Great!  I see a template for IP_Address (but that's the only one
besides template :-(

I defined a new resource of type IP_Address. (I called it "158.155.8.170")
Then back at the  failsafe manager main window I tried 
-->Resource & Resource Types
 -->Modify an existing resource definition

I can select "IP_Address" but the second drop down list
comes up blank.  I know that the resource is defined because I get an
error if I try to add it again (a message like "... already defined")

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Unfortunately, now I am stuck.  This seems related to the problem
above.  After defining my failover policy, and my resource group, I'm
now trying to add a resource to the group and having some trouble
using the GUI. 

>From the Failsafe Manager
-->Failover Policies & Resource Groups
 -->Add/Remove Resources in Resource Groups

I select my resource group name, then select the resource type
'IP_Address' but the drop down list isn't filled in.  

<time passes>

HMMM.... I just tried typing in the field and I was able to type in
the resource name and add it!

----------------------------------------------------------------------

OK, now I'm not feeling so lucky.  

I've started the cluster services.  Then I cliked on "FailSafe Cluster
View" from the manager window.

The view of the cluster doesn't look that good.  It says
that dru1a is in status "Unknown", dru2a is in status 'Inactive' but I
know it is down right now, I'm re-installing the OS (testing my redhat
kickstart install).  but then I see the note that says 
it make take a while for it to show status "Up".

/sbin/ifconfig -a doesn't show my IP address resource.

I see a message in /var/log/failsafe/cmond_log:

Mon Jan  5 21:02:35.521 <cmond 876:1024> Serving notification #0 key = #cluster#

Mon Jan  5 21:02:35.521 <cmond 876:1024> No action required for this 
notification

At the bottom I attached more message from the log directory that
looked like they might be pertinent:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

>From the failsafe manager gui, I clicked "read system log" from
the button at the bottom of the screen and get the error:

  The requested privelege "readLog" does not exist on this server
