My thoughts would be to keep the backup machine turned on and use something
like heartbeat to handle the failover. It will help you sleep at night knowing
failover happens automagically and not by you going in and turning a machine
on. Arp problem solved (probably)

Subject: Re: [lvs-users] Ldirector and swtich caching
Hi Graeme,
Well, we haven't gotten to the heartbeat point yet. Right now, we have a
dedicated "backup" machine with exact same configuration both from a network
standpoint and ldirectord config that's in a powered off state. The hope for
the time being if something were to happen to the main Ldirector, was to turn
it off and power on the "backup" machine. In this case, I can see how ARP
issues would arise. Any thoughts on this situation?
Thanks,
Brandon
