Many thanks to the list.What you are talking about is a HA (High Availability) setupIf what you want is really just one server backed by a hot spare, then you don't need Xen at all. The easiest way to do this is using heartbeat for high availability and DRBD to replicate the data. Heartbeat v1 does this very well and is fairly easy to understand. Unfortunately, all the HA developers want everyone to run the latest version of heartbeat (v2 or v3) or corosync, with pacemaker and despite what they sometimes say, this is a very large basketball to swallow. It is massive overkill just for a pair of hot spare servers with a shared IP address. But it is difficult to find anyone who will help you with heartbeat v1 since it is "obsolete", but you may be able to figure it out yourself. The official documentation for HA on Linux is at http://www.linux-ha.org/ and http://www.drbd.org/ --Greg -- Jangita | +256 76 91 8383 | Y! & MSN: jangita@xxxxxxxxx Skype: jangita | GTalk: jangita.nyagudi@xxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
