NFS Replication



Hello,

I have two servers and will be running CARP on each server for fail
over. We also use NFS to share the /home partition. Is it possible
to do a live NFS replication between the two servers? I need to data
on each server to be the exact same at all times in the event of a
failure and the slave server takes over. So far I have not found a
solution and would like to have suggestions on how I can share /home
to client servers and also have replication.

Thanks,
Cody
