I'm sure some of that is possible, but it's a cloud, so why not do things the cloud way? Spin up redundant bits in disparate availability zones. Replicate only what must be replicated. Use volumes for DR only when replication would be too expensive. Instances are cattle, not pets. Keep them alive just long enough to make your profit. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
