It would be possible to use this approach, but it seems to me no robust solution. The handling of the manual sessions have to be driven by the HA-System (heartbeat). I case of split brain this will give a session to both machines - and booom! I think the a robust solution have to be a session counting instance and thus at best located at the target side. Is there really no Target-side appoach? Is it possible to limit the number of sessions via the authentification of the session (e.g. a Radius service )?
