Hi, I have a quick question about how programs linked against the mysql C libraries handle the following:
-assume three mysql hosts, say 10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.3, and 10.0.0.4 -assume a dns name "db.example.com" that returns the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED] host db.example.com db.example.com has address 10.0.0.2 db.example.com has address 10.0.0.3 db.example.com has address 10.0.0.4 If my client program repeatedly connects to "db.example.com" and my nameserver round-robins through those IPs, will the client also keep cycling through those? What is the behaviour if one of those hosts does not respond? Will the client application then try the next one?
