In our case, we didn't have the "two machines" requirement, but had the same 'didn't want to deal with services on the same box issue). We're using: Real Hardware: x-p1 / x-p2 (Keepalived for one floating IP for each of internal/external networks) - serves provisioning http(s), tftp, and FS itself Virtual Machines on another cluster (not jitter/drift sensitive): x-db-p1, x-db-p2, x-db-p3 (Percona XTraDB Cluster + keepalived for single floating IP) x-gfs-p1, x-gfs-p3, x-gfs-p3 (Glustre Filesystem) - only using this for a loosely consistent persistent store for voicemail, logs, etc. Could easily be merged with other instances. x-web-p1, x-web-p2 (end user accessible web, frontended with existing on-prem load balancer and ssl offload) The actual setup and resource requirements are quite low other than having a bunch of smaller VMs. -- Nathan On 08/18/2015 10:28 PM, João Mesquita wrote:

We’re also interested on the subject to some extent. We’ve decided tobail out on HA deployments because of the complexity and moving parts, specially when not using more than 2 machines where you have to failover not only FS but also Postgresql and whatnot.

Our typical installation is a "large scale” PBX (say 1000 extensions?) where no customer is willing to put more than 2 identical machines and therefore, you’re stuck with active-active postgresql replication, floating ips and such. If this sort of scenario is on the target, I can get resources into the project as well but we will most certainly be on the learning end although would probably help us run extra miles where needed. Will be on the call, just let me know what time.

Lets schedule call after the 24th sometime, giving everyone enough time to digest the magnitude of what I've proposed here.

I'm in. There are a few common HA cases I'm aware of, so I think we'll need to document the pros and cons of the scenarios.
