<p dir="ltr">Hi Sandvik,</p>
<p dir="ltr">I believe this ultimately is what the self hosted engine is planned to solve. It's up to you as to whether you feel comfortable with that idea currently. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Outside of that, I would point you to the Red Hat Cluster Suite in a RHEV/RHEL environment. The high availability component of that is based on Linux-HA but I have only used Red Hat's implementation.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Lastly, the poor man's solution if this isn't critical infrastructure would be a hot standby server. Keep the packages in sync between the two however you feel appropriate. Run engine-backup as frequently as needed and copy it to the second server. Have your engine address as a secondary address with appropriate DNS and move it between them in a fail over (or use a CNAME). Restore the backup in a fail over and run engine-setup. I think you get the idea. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Personally I use hosted engine in all but my main production cluster. That one will use it once I've upgraded those hosts to RHEL 7.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Hope that helps. </p>
