Apache mod_jk plus JBossWeb (Tomcat inside of JBoss) would allow you to do this, but with some manual intervention: - You have nodes 1 and 2 - Configure node 2 to be backup, so no traffic is sent to it (disabled=true in workers.properties) - Configure node 1 to have node 2 as failover - When node 1 crashes, all traffic will be sent to node 2 - HOWEVER, failback won't happen the same way. You would have to restart node 1 as 'disabled' and configure the failover node for node 2 to be node 1. This can be done with the /status/ application on Apache though View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3973809#...
