2 hosts - primary site on 1, backup mirror on 2. How?
Hi,I'm currently looking at using two accounts with two seperate providers and using one as the primary server with the other in backup.
To all intents and purposes I want the backup to take over if the primary fails but I'm not sure if
a) this is possible
...or
b) how to accomplish this if it is
The scenario I hope is possible is that if server 1 goes dead then DNS will look for the alternate option find it alive and direct a user to that instead.
Thanks in advance for any pointers to information and taking the time to reply..
