Our current MySQL configuration has two servers in active-active state (ie, neither is a master, both are fully active and serving requests). The MySQL servers use a Network Appliance for storage.

So this is the point which I am still struggling with. I mean generally there is a problem
of read-write intenstive UsrLoc operations. We can move it from SIP to DB. However, whichever
layer we choose to solve the problem, it takes careful dimensioning. Otherwise the
replication mechanism may cause peformance problems.

What Mysql setup are you exactly using? Cluster? Master/slave replication?

Otherwise I think that the cache policy "load-on-demand" makes sense.
