Hi

>From autofs(5):

The  automounter (...) handles SunOS-style replicated
filesystems only to the extent that mount(8) does.

I think this is the feature you're looking for. So it is up to mount to 
support it. But you can implement it by using Executable Maps. See also 
autofs(5). You can write a script that pings a few hosts and takes the first 
responding host.
