A MySQL slave has a single master. A master can have multiple slaves. Your set of connections forms either a tree or a loop, possibly with branches. I've written a "collector" process to short circuit the loop for pushing a replication stream through a bunch of servers. The goal was off-site backup and centralized reporting. I can't imagine using it for high-availability fail over. > There are also other > "implementations" of mmr, but they are just sets of scripts that mimic > heartbeat.
