Expense isn't really part of the equation here -- part of what I wanted to
point out -- most people have load balancers around already (for their
website or other applications), and if not they at least have Linux boxes
and get load balancing for free.
Do you mean the expense of configuring it all
Loading balancing and redundancy are two separate requirements.
Sometimes the merge but not always. Most of the load in Cfengine is on
the client so the server is not typically very busy. It is nice to have
a redundant server in case of failure but I don't think that a load
balancer is often wort
Curious -- Why not just load balance N policy hosts, which appear as one
"server" (cfservd VIP) to clients (thereby requiring no special
configuration). Some would argue this is best practice for any large org,
and free load balancing solutions are available and widely used for those
without a bud
I was teaching him to fish :) Seriously if anyone uses multiple servers
in production and has tested failover I'd love to hear about your
experience.

The 'servers' option in the copy_from body takes an array of servers.

I would like to configure copy_from to first try using a external
server if thats not available then use local filesystem.
How can I set this up.
Thanks,
