Now I have a few problem with Debian and LVM, until I solve it I can't do it anything. But here another idea: I put the two squid in cascade and the Master (HA) make the petitions first to the second squid and if it down go directly to Internet. The both squid will cache all the contents, so will be duplicate the contents, but if someone go down, the other one will respond with all the content cached. It look like this: client ---> Server1 ---> Server2 ---> Internet (server1 and server2 will cache all) Server1 down client ---> Server2 ---> Internet (server2 will cache all) Server2 down client ---> Server1 ---> Internet (server2 will cache all) What do you think ?
