Yes, that initial set of ideas was a bit more complicated than needed, do
check my later post about setting up mysql replication :)
failover: having 2 machines configured to run the same server process -- but
only one of the runs the process at any time -- using heartbeat to have one
machine grab the VIP and start the server process when the other machine
fails. heartbeat+ldirectord is a common setup for having redundant load
balancers, but heartbeat can start any proccess (apache, mysql, ftpd, shell
script, etc) when it takes control of the VIP from a failed machine
