Load balancing will work without issue, there is a good suggestion on using round robin DNS in Chapter 4 of Pro Puppet page 116.

Yeah but I am little suspicious about two masters sharing /var/lib/puppet ... could that cause troubles? -- Jakov Sosic www.srce.unizg.hr -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

This works great. Just make sure you do not have 2 active CA servers at the same time. The only shared stuff for the puppetmasters in /var/lib/puppet is the SSL stuff. We also share the /etc/puppet/environments for code. We use this setup to scale to tens of thousands of puppet clients.
