Hi Adel,
RedHat Cluster Suite is supported - here is a list of further supported 3rd party products:
http://www.scalix.com/products/scalixready.html
As far as external storage, we greatly recommend SAN technology. SAN (be it iSCSI, FC or what have you) is optimized for high bidirectional I/O loads. NAS/NFS is a read-mostly technology for large files - performance will suffer greatly as Scalix reads and writes great numbers of small files.
Hope this helps, if you have any more questions post them, I'll keep an eye on the thread.
Cheers,
Chris

Our website has just been relaunched - there are several links that have changed.
Here's the current list

Thanks Chris. Why only on SuSE? Linux HA works well everywhere.

Because we only tested it on SuSE.
Like many things, it may work perfectly on other systems, but we can't promise anything we haven't tested.
