Hi guys,

I'm looking for some assistance setting up heartbeat in a version 2 style, I've used it in version 1 style before, but am just having a bit of a trouble getting my head around this whole set up.

I have 3 servers behing a loadbalancer, each running web and MySQL services. Server 1 is the master server and 2 and 3 replicate the MySQL data off that server.

I am looking to achieve a set up where if server 1 goes down (ping or MySQL stops responding) then a VIP (initially on server 1) will fail over to server 2 AND httpd should be stopped on server 3, BUT if server 2 is also having issues then server 3 should take on the VIP. I will be disabling autofailback in order to prevent my data getting entirely messed up.

If server 2 or 3 go down at any other point this is not as much of an issue as they are only slave machines.

Is what I am looking to do even possible? I've had a look through the website, read some of the tutorials and watched the video/read the slides from linuxconf 06, but I am just struggling a little at the minute. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Chris
