RE: [Xen-users] Simple high-availability Apache project
I'm not sure if this helps .. but Xen does have live migration. So, in case you need to do some hardware maintenance on PowerEdge1 where your primary VM run, you can live migrate it to PowerEdge2 and take down box PowerEdge1 ...
In case of crash, there's an option on config file to automatically restart on crash.
