Is the data static? If not it is probably not worth the effort as you would
have to send every write to every mysql server. If it is static then sure
just tell the program calling mysql to open another mysql server if the
first one fails

for example something like this.

if (!(connection = mysql_connect (host, user, password))) then
connection=mysql_connection (host2, user, password);

Of Course this will require rewriting the mysql login section of vchkpw.

Subject: mysql high availability


Hi guys,
Is there a feature to enable failover if primary mysql does not respond and
go to secondary mysql server. Is there anyway to enable multiple point of
failure in any kind of setup?.

Thanks
