Ok, round-robin dns will work.
But it will probably work with pure tomcats too, wouldn't it? If you
round-robin the load between two httpds, why dont you do the same
between two tomcats?


You may want to have a look at this

http://homepages.tesco.net/J.deBoynePollard/FGA/dns-round-robin-is- useless.html

and

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_robin_DNS
"Some desktop clients may even try alternate addresses after a connection time out of 30-45 seconds."

This behavior is unfortunately not specified - and could be changed at any time.

I don't know if I would want to define my failover via a not specified mechanism.
