Configuring RTC for High Availability in the Enterprise

it show redundant RTC server managed by an IBM HTTP server. That is awesome! What happens when that Web server goes down? What options exist for making that web server always available? Has anyone setup a config like this and if so how did you deal with the web server as a single point of failure issue?

Thanks!

I have seen in other WebSphere solutions (not directly related to RTC
but I think all of them apply):

1.- Operating System high availability: AIX HACMP, Microsoft Clustering,
Sun Clustering, etc...

2.- Another dispatcher in front of the HTTP Servers like WebSphere Edge
Server.

3.- A hardware dispatcher.

I am working with a customer that uses Veritas clustering for all their apps that need high availability (RTC is one of those). This is a software solution that RTC does not need to understand or know about - which makes it very useful.
