With commercial solutions !
All which has been discussed here is no option at all, as you can't keep
installations in sync properly over distance. There would be a solution:
For the filesystem, search for block-devices. There are open source tools
which do that one way, there are commercial tools which do it both ways. But
this is far to expensive ! Seriously. This is even much more then the
mysql-solution we are going to use.
For the database backend, there is emic networks, providing a good
commercial solution, which we are testing at the moment. We'll go online
with that within the next 2 weeks if our tests work out fine. MySQL has been
the bottleneck with the huge database, which ended up in a loop while
exporting data via mysqldump ;) (Raid, Filesystem, myisamchk, all went fine
and did not report errors)
-> www.emicnetworks.com
Believe me, there is no proper way syncing two installations in realtime for
a proper failover. If you come up with a _working_ version of something the
like, it could be discussed again. But I don't think this will be possible
with the tools available.
