LAMP Server Failover

How does everyone else handle this?

My Setup:
Server A:
CentOS 5.x
10.0.0.1
Apache
MySQL Master

Server B:
CentOS 5.x
10.0.0.2
Apache
MySQL Slave

My Domains:
dom1.com A record: 10.0.0.1
A Record: 10.0.0.2
dom2.com A record: 10.0.0.1
A Record: 10.0.0.2
.
.
.

Since you CANNOT write to the slave, and have master updated, I have heard that 2 way replication will cause problems. I have setup all writes to goto master (write.dom1.com) and reads goto slave (read.dom1.com) via hosts file on each server.

If Server A goes down Server B detects this and rewrited hosts file to (writes.dom1.com) to its self so everything works great.

But if the script on Server B acts to quickly and takes over writes and Server A starts responding now the databases are not consistant anymore.

I guess I could have the script that changes the hosts file to reverse the MASTER and SLAVE computers and reestablish the replication but thats a PITA.

Is there a better way to handle this?

Keep in mind I only have 2 Dual P4 servers. These are just my personal websites and if they go down its not really a big deal but I still would like to know how everyone else would handle this if they were 'somewhat' missioan critical with limited resources.

Thanks...

MYSQLND_MS_MATCH_WILD(3)						 1						  MYSQLND_MS_MATCH_WILD(3)

mysqlnd_ms_match_wild - Finds whether a table name matches a wildcard pattern or not

SYNOPSIS
bool mysqlnd_ms_match_wild (string $table_name, string $wildcard) DESCRIPTION
Finds whether a table name matches a wildcard pattern or not. This function is not of much practical relevance with PECL mysqlnd_ms 1.1.0 because the plugin does not support MySQL replication table filtering yet. PARAMETERS
o $table_name - The table name to check if it is matched by the wildcard. o $wildcard - The wildcard pattern to check against the table name. The wildcard pattern supports the same placeholders as MySQL replication filters do. MySQL replication filters can be configured by using the MySQL Server configuration options --replicate-wild-do-table and --replicate-wild-do-db. Please, consult the MySQL Reference Manual to learn more about this MySQL Server feature. The sup- ported placeholders are: o % - zero or more literals o _ - one literal Placeholders can be escaped using . RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE table_name is matched by wildcard. Otherwise, returns FALSE EXAMPLES
Example #1 mysqlnd_ms_match_wild(3) example <?php var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("schema_name.table_name", "schema%")); var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("abc", "_")); var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("table1", "table_")); var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("asia_customers", "%customers")); var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("funny%table","funny\%table")); var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("funnytable", "funny%table")); ?> The above example will output: bool(true) bool(false) bool(true) bool(true) bool(true) bool(true) PHP Documentation Group MYSQLND_MS_MATCH_WILD(3)
