Are you trying to use Round Robin DNS? Yes, you can
But, remember.. If you use same hostname, the client will access to them in "random"
thanks for the quick answer. NOT to use Round robin DNS.
on one server, under /etc/sysconfig/network hostname field
HOSTNAME=mail.example.com
and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file
IPADDR=192.168.0.1
on the other server, under /etc/sysconfig/network hostname field also
HOSTNAME=mail.example.com
and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file
IPADDR=192.168.0.2
is it possible? is it recommend?
my task is to have 2 zimbra servers with mail.example.com with 2 ips
192.168.0.1 is the primary, I want to rsync /opt of this server to the other server 192.168.0.2.
then, primary fails, I have a backup on the other server. no data lost....
This is what I want to achieve. but, NOT for any kind of ROUND ribbon DNS stuff..
is it possible? is it recommend?
Pls answer?
Diego actually already answered you.
And yes it can be done. And, yes, it's generally used for round robin DNS, whether you actually want to use round robin DNS or not.
P.S. Please don't top-post.
