Hello,

My company runs an web-application of our own on a standalone FreeBSD server.
The app is for our own use, here are some of the characteristics:
- Not RAID
- Does Backups :P

Now, our app uses MySQL Because of the possibility to extend, if necessary to
Mysql-Cluster
as we want to provide to our future customers a good service reliability... Read
here: failover.

The app is near to be commercialisable, so, we want to grow our server... to 2
servers
(or 3 if mysql-cluster's mgm)
I would like to implement RAID1 (Sounds like geom is the good option for this)
without
having to break my current system and just by doing one or two reboot...
What can you advise me ?

I will certainly move to MySQL cluster, as I already used it and it's the only
option
I know of that would allow failover. Any suggestion, Maybe a solution on the
PgSQL side ?

What about the failover system itself ? CARP ?

Thanks for any tip :)

Pierre
