[squid-users] HA/RHCS & Squid Advice

Hi List,

I have two Squid servers in different subnets on different geographical sites (LES link between the two) serving our users. I would like to look into high availability/cluster services so that I can move IP/Hostname around and take one out of commission – quite a simple setup. I'd like some advice on it if possible. If all I want to be able to do is move a hostname and IP to the other node thereby taking one physical box out of commission to work on what does the list recommend? I need to enable my colleagues (no knowledge of Linux) to do this easily.

I'm thinking Red Hat Cluster Services but it seems a bit heavy for this.. I'm just starting to read up on the High Availability project but thought I'd get the question in..

Thanks

Nick
