Tomcat 5.0.28
We seem to often have to make minor changes that cause us to have to
restart
our tomcat server (the whole server, not just a web application) and this
has lead me to decide to research load balancing. The idea would be
to have
two servers that would be exact duplicates. One of the servers would
only
become available when the other was not running. This way we could
make the
change on server2 (and restart it) and then bring server1 down and
make the
change to it as well. This would prevent any real downtime for our
users.
Where should I look for info on how to implement this type of failover?
Thanks for your help

You can also use an Apache server as a front end to multiple
servers/tomcats. I'm not talking about using mod_jk either, but using
Apache as a traffic router. It works well, and you will be using
mod_rewrite and/or mod_proxy. Check them out.
