RedHat's cluster project focuses mainly on the clustered filesystem and
the clustered LVM, plus their DLM.

Linux HA is mostly dealing with complex and powerful cluster resource
management (dependency based switch- and fail-over, etc).

(Both statements are a gross over-simplification.)

In theory they ought to complement eachother, in practice they are based
on rather different infrastructure and also have some conceptual
differences.
