Not sure what his issue was but in my organization we had one puppet
master with mod_passenger and puppet 2.6.3 running fine with 200
clients in a VM. We expanded to a 2 node cluster, with the original
puppet master serving as the master for the secondaries. The
secondaries have an F5 infront of them with no session persistence
round robin and a health monitor to know if one of the masters had
gone down.
