As Corosync RRP only supports two modes (Active and Passive) which were described in that Totem redundant ring paper for now, can we support more modes like active-standby or proportional distributing the workload according to the bandwidth?
For the active-standby mode, I think some users may have this requirement, and they often misunderstand the passive mode as active-standby (it seems "round-robin" is a more suitable naming than "passive"), so implementing a truely active-standy might be necessary? For the proportional distributing the workload across different rings, I'd like to give an example: say there are two rings, one is composed of 1000Mbit NICs and the other is composed of 100Mbit NICs, for now, the passive mode can only distributed the workload equally on the two rings, can we consider the bandwidth as well(for example define a scale factor) and distribute the network workload proportional according to the bandwidth of each ring?
