Is anyone doing any type of failover or load balancing between two hobbit servers? I know that there was a function to do failover in BB. I have two separate servers that I've installed Hobbit onto, and am having clients reporting to both, and they both are "clients" for each other, but I just want to make sure I'm doing it the right way, and see if there might be a better way.
I'm currently using hobbit in a failover scenario, but only one hobbit server is up at a time. There are 3 boxes [small freebsd PC's] acting in an active/passive/passive mode with the clients reporting to the virtual IP. The data is rsync'ed every minute so the data loss would be minimal.
