Hi Justin, I could probably be wrong on this but you're having to use a Ceph gateway rather than natively interracting with the cluster right? If so then the only way that you'd really be able to get HA would be to install a load balancer in front of multiple gateways. Under normal conditions when all is good they can share the load and when one fails it's simply dropped out of the rotation but you continue to hit the same IP address.
As I understand, the fact that there isn't a native fault tolerance here is a large part of the reason why it's not currently production ready.
