What you cannot do is have multiple engines load-balancing the work, like openstack controllers for example. > What happen if the engine server crash with some reason? can i load it on > another cluster server? > If the engine goes down, the hosts and VMs keep working, so you have time to restore from backup or fix the engine without outages, besides a management outage of course.
