[ale] Multiple NFS servers for the same mount point?

[Leam Hall]

I recall seeing a place use multiple NFS servers for the same mount 
point. That is, if NFS-1 is not available, then use NFS-2. However, I 
wasn't involved in the setup and am not sure if they were using Virtual 
IPs or if mount can actually have an "servera or serverb" option.

What's the current best practice for setting up a shared filesystem with 
reliability, failover, and good replication? If distro matters, this is 
more towards Ubuntu.

Thanks!

Leam
