As I understand it this is no problem for vrrp,

There are two layers to consider
o ip_vs
o ip and route management (heartbeat, vrrp which detect
changes in state and run a bunch of scripts)
To get active/active to work you need the layer 4 router
(here ip_vs) to allow active/active. The only way to do this
is with saru, which was a proof of principle project. Once
you have active/active working, you can manage failout any
way you want. Heartbeat and vrrp isn't what makes
active/active work.
