Hi,
Wouldn't MapCache be a better tool for that task? I think of a
configuration based on fallback caches:

Dear all,
We use Mapserver 7.4.3 on Ubuntu. We use it as WMS client to collect
several WMS into one place, serving them to our application.
The task now is to define a fallback for one of the WMS source
servers. That means:
Mapserver will have two technically identical sources for the same
output layer, only the URL is different. Is there a way to define (in
mapfile preferably) that one source is only used if the other fails
(is offline)? I thought of layer groups but then I will have a
duplicate call if both sources are available. I do know this would be
a better task for a load balancer or proxy but we do not have that
option at this time.
Thank you for your time and thoughts.
Best
Lars
