Hi,

Currently we have 3 puppet masters behind a VIP load balanced (by hardware 
load balancer). We have an NFS mount share across the 3 servers which 
stores the puppet code and certificates etc. We have some proxy balancers 
on the hosts for CA with the 1st puppet master being the active worker and 
the hot standby being the second server, because of these being balanced we 
also have all requests other than the certificates proxy passed to just one 
instance on port 18140 on each servers .

I'm wanting to ask several questions about this:-


   - Do you think that the CA needs to be set up master/standby since the 
   certificate directory is shared - I'm not sure on this since techniquely I 
   guess you could have problems when 2 or more puppet masters sign certs at 
   the same time, because of the serial number?
   - If a CA master/standby is needed do the other requests really need to 
   go via the proxy as well. We are running into some 502/503 errors when the 
   puppet masters are loaded, I'm wandering whether that would happen less if 
   it wasn't doing the proxy pass

Thanks
