Mirroring/Load Balancing Request #98

Hello, I'm a sysadmin with very basic coding experience. How feasible would it be to use load balancing or mirroring with the PiServer tool for fail over purposes? I understand that it was built with the classroom in mind, so maybe I need a different tool since I'm not using it in a classroom setting. That said, it just works so well for my environment, but even though I have backups, I'm concerned about keeping things going seamlessly should anything happen to the server.

While nothing prevents you from using standard Linux replication options like drbd, keep in mind they make things very slow.
If some dataloss on node failure is not acceptable, it essentially requires the file system to be mounted sync (no write caching).
