Hi Mahesh,
doing HA with a simple shell-script may sound convenient for a first start, but a fast hacked together shell script is probably not at all what you want to do when you have HA in mind.
If you want to do it right, use corosync and pacemaker or some other HA-toolstack to build a stable cluster. That's not easy and requires considerable effort to learn, but it is a solid and stable solution.
A simple but far less hacky method than own shell scripts is using UCARP. UCARP is a small piece of software that hooks 2 or more servers together which check if each other is reachable. The "primary" node sets up the configured service ip and can launch an "up-script" after taking the service ip. So the connection between service-ip and service is a fairly good for such a type of easy-peasy-HA. I did that and the advantage of this is that UCARP is very easy to configure. The whole handling of who is master, who is slave and who is reachable and who not is done by UCARP.

NAME

SYNOPSIS
LOCAL_VPS_ID DESTINATION_HOSTNAME [ DEST_VPS_ID ]
DESCRIPTION
dtc-xen_migrate This shell script is a part of the dtc-xen package that is to be used by the dtc panel to manage a Xen VPS server. Note
that you need rsync in both the source and the destination dom0.
This script is used to move the content of a Xen virtual machine (VM) managed with dtc-xen to another Xen server of the same type. The VM
destination will first be prepared, then the local VM will be shut down, then it's content will be transfered over using rsync.
Note that this is NOT a live migration, and down time of approximatively the time needed for the rsync will occure.
PARAMETERS
LOCAL_VPS_ID The DTC-Xen id of the VM, from 00 to 99.
DESTINATION_HOSTNAME Destination Xen server hostname to migrate to.
DEST_VPS_ID Destination DTC-Xen id of the VM, from 00 to 99.
EXAMPLE
dtc-xen_migrate 19 alpha.example.com 21
This will migrate the content of xen19 on the local machine to the destination server alpha.example.com using xen21 as VM name.
