Back We have the following:
Webserver web1 with a mounted partition /dev/hda3 (/www) and home of about 40 hosting clients
and
Webserver web2 with a mounted partition /dev/hda3 (/www) and home of about 40 different hosting clients
Mirror-Server mirro mirroring both /www - directories of web1 and web2 every night with
rsync -avzr -e ssh web1:/www /backup/web1 rsync -avzr -e ssh web2:/www /backup/web2
Everything works great.
Now we wan 't to do:
When web1 or web2 crashes, mirror should take the identity of the crashed server, providing httpd , ssh and ftp services, so that out hosting clients only have about 5 minutes offline-time.
I read something abount mounting /boot and / on different partitions on the mirror server and a modified lilo.conf with different root=/dev/.... definitions so that I can select on reboot.
Can somebody give me a tipp or some links to docs! Would be great!
