That's easy - just do it manually: have a failure-decection and
-alerting software installed (like MON or similar), and if there is an
error that cannot be resolved quickly, just rip out the cables from the
main box and plug back into the backup one. The luxury version uses
manual network switches (very much like the mechanical printer switchers).
