Indeed, that’s what we discussed with Giulio, using HAProxy for the Monitors is a bit overkill since the client is natively able to switch between different monitor source. Loic, maybe you can elaborate a bit more on the usage of HAProxy for the monitors? > On 09 Nov 2014, at 22:54, Justin Ere

Giulio, Right. The volume part is tricky because the volume is ultimately tied to one cinder-volume instance. I don't have a magic solution for that yet. I'm not going to the contributor summit unfortunately. I'm not personally a fan of keepalived since I've been spoiled by corosync. Let's see
