Apache in Hot-StandBy Mode - Clustering

[r4k3sh]

Hello All,

This is my first post so I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask questions on server hot standby. I have a requirement for making servers hot stand by. The requirement is:
Have 2 servers running windows sbs server (Currently stand alone mode running Apache Tomcat)
Need to make these hot-standby. If one goes down, the other must get up and running.
Tried mod_jk connector, but it does not work if the load balancer server goes down.
Have no idea about how to make the data shared between these servers.
I would really appreciate your help. Thanks,

Rakesh
