[OpenSER-Users] failover with openser

Hi,

I have heard that there are two main methods to allow failover with
openser - you can use heartbeat, which I believe is where a secondary
machine assumes the primary machines IP upon the primary not
responding to a ping.  I understand the alternative is SRV records,
which use DNS to failover when a machine goes down.

What is the advantages/disadvantages of each?  What are people
actually using in production with OpenSER?

Can anyone offer some advice on this?

TIA

Robert
