High Availability Cluster for NFS

I am looking for 3rd party software (freeware, if possible) solution under
SOLARIS. Here is our problem.

We would like to have a system with no single point failure primarily for
NFS services. We are thinking about two Dual CPU 64-bit Ultrasparc processor
systems with heartbeat approach and common storage. Solutions from Sun
Microsystems are way too expensive for us. I would like to know if there are
any 3 party companies offering a "Software" on SOLARIS to check heartbeat of
machines and to do the switch over automatically if one of the two systems
should fail. Any web links will be helpful, especially if there are any
freeware packages.

I can find many useful sites for LINUX. Unfortunately, I need ones for
SOLARIS.

Any experience on the above subject is welcome. Thanks in advance.

Sundar
