Hi Fred - We don't use any cluster software. Our backup server is just a full copy of our data and nothing more. So in the event of a failure of the master our server clients don't automatically fail over or anything nifty like that. This filer isn't customer facing, so in the event of a failure of the master there is no customer impact. We use a slightly modified zrep to handle the replication between the two.
