Subject: load balanced configuration


Hi Plug,

I am considering combining the sites on two servers and creating a load balanced configuration.  One server will be in one data center and another will be in a different data center.  This is to ensure if one data center goes off line that these site will still be available via the Internet.  This is also a consideration for backing up our data and content.  Each server is configured with a RAID 1 disk set.

I have never taken on such a responsibility so I am not sure of any gotchas or anything I should be considering.

Our data center guy will be doing most of the work, which will help. 

Any suggestions or concerns I should have with two servers in a load balanced arrangement with each server in a different location?

Thank you for your help!
