Making 2 vps sync
heya,
I have two VPS one in Nederlands and other in Germany. I run a couple of sites on the Nederlands box, not fancy just PHP/MySQL with mainly static pages.
Not sure if sounds right but want to make it so Germany keeps to recive updates from Nederlands so if goes down I switch manually from Nederlands to Germany in cloudflare and all stays up but is all same
possible?

rsync
rsync and mysql replication.
Sounds about right however to avoid missing something rsync would need to be running a non stop loop, is that the most efficient way?
Syncthing/btsync
lsyncd/csync2 + Galera
I tried almost everything (except Syncthing) but finally btsync is what works quick and dirty, never failed.
Along btsync, I'm going with mysql dump instead of mysql replication. And a small bash script to aid the dump & replacement. It's a little more work and not that fancy, but I sleep peacefully at night.
BTSync is probably the fastest way, but it's closed source.
lsync is rsync with real time updates iirc so I would probably use that.
drbd XD ?
add heartbeat to that and you can have the entire process automated
bump! Need help
I want my VPS 2 to keep receiving updates (files,database,conf files everything except os files) from VPS 1 and this should happen every hour so that VPS 2 don't miss any update from VPS 1 and if VPS 1 fail i can switch to VPS 1 and make it up and running. Is there any easy way to do it? Rsync mostly corrupt the OS files for me if i sync whole /* and there is no option to sync mysql/mariadb using rsync.
So any easy way or automatic script to achieve it?
