Redundancy is the main aim, but load balancing (via a F5 bigip) would be
a bonus.

We use it as a backing store for object management system, so when our
object manager loads (after it crashed?) it can find any servants that
are running.
Having said that, I have come up with a scheme that does away with the
requirement for omniNames to be synchronised. We run a set of omniNames
with a static set of object refs (they point to a virtual ip) and each
set of servers actually runs with it's own, private, instantiation of
omniNames.
Thanks for your comments,
