I am currently trying to improve my failover strategies. Aside from adding a DNS failover I want to make sure I am able to log in via a shell
Whenever the server is overloaded I am unable to log in or at least it takes 20 minutes - 60 minutes until I can stop the service that is overloading the service
Of course the best strategy is to avoid overloads in the first place, however it would be nice to know if there is a way to reserve resources for a shell or a script
Any suggestions for failover / emergency situations are appreciated
Cheers
