Hi,

Just like we have backup mail servers, I want to apply the same logic for
apache. The idea is I will have 2 web servers running in different
servers. If the first server fails or if the service gets stopped, the
second server should handle requests for the websites. How can this be
made possible ?

Hi,
You can use DNS round robin scheduling. For this your DNS records must have multiple IP's assigned to a single host. If host name lookup fails then the DNS supplies another IP. DNS servers will deterministically issue different IP addresses of the host in a round robin fashion. You must remember to lower down the TTL to a lowest possible value.
Hope this helps...

Rgds,
Sanjay
