You have to decide if it is hot-standby or cold standby. Mostly 
cold-standby is used. That means only one SIP proxy is running. The SIP 
proxy is using a virtual IP address. If the proxy fails (or the hardware 
fails) the standby server will detect this, will configure the virtual 
interface and start the SIP proxy. Take a look at "heartbeat" and 
"ultramonkey".

If you are using hat standby, you configure the "fallback2db" option and 
either
- use a single database
- use 2 databases with master-master replication
- use a mysql cluster
