It would be nice to have support for setting up various kinds of load balancing and replication.
Active-Active Redundancy or High-availability
I would like to see active-active redundancy or at the very least a high-availability active-inactive feature in WHM/cPanel. Starting out with N+1 would be sufficient.
Several virtual platforms already offer this, and there are several SAN solutions that do as well. Unfortunately those solutions are cost prohibitive for shared hosting. The custom solutions that most hosts are using rely on custom support labor and often use unproven methods.
With today's SAN environments or direct connection it is possible to achieve the necessary throughput on the network with a heartbeat and sync channel to accomplish this feature request. I would think that this can be accomplished from cPanel's programming side as well because cPanel has implemented complex features in the past.
I believe this is a very serious matter and I would be willing to pay higher costs for this feature. I would also purchase more licenses from cPanel if this existed.
I have contacted cPanel support about this several times in the past but the response has always been that cPanel is not interested. cPanel tells me that the hosting community is not interested in this. So, I would like for everyone to vote on this so that we can get the ball rolling. Please show cPanel how important this is to the hosting community! Please comment and vote for this feature!
sure we are interested in this feature, I've been contacting the support since we started using cPanel 6 years ago but i got the same answer, anyhow the only thing preventing me or my company from taking cPanel to the premium hosting level is the lack of HA solution, we are willing to invest in this feature and of course it will increase my number of cPanel licenses. (such solution will not require SAN only a decent network connectivity between the nodes)
for cPanel to implement this they should basically find a way to move all application data to a database engine (MySQL in this case) in order to have a seamless replication for the customers/accounts data between the nodes, as for the configuration files its very easy to write some scripts that will sync conf files between the N nodes.

At least 1 method of load balancing/high availability will be very nice, please consider to add it..

This is how I see that high availability should work :
Customers files on a high availibility NAS, and NAS mounted on two or more servers
Customers databases on MySQL Cluster
Customers DNS on DNSOnly Cluster
IP's on a hartbeat / load balanceing
cPanel installed and licenced on two or more nodes.
I'm not sure how exactly cPanel would cope with this configuration and I belive there would be some work to get everyting working flawlessly with cPanel.
The only part that cPanel should manage is making sure cPanel's are aware of this configuration, and syncing any modification on one node that's not in the users files or users databases or users DNS accross to the other server.
We are working towards such a configuration and would like it very much if cPanel couuld make it become a reality.
The total cost of all this is not prohibitave. A small host would not be interested in this type of solution but for a medium to large host is seems like and important step forwards.
This would also need a way to add a new node. The admin would install cPanel, add NAS's, then clone / sync the onther serveur configurations then adding the new IP to the load balancing scheme.
Medium/large webhosting companies would write their own script for adding NAS's and IP's to load balancing system. They would however need a simple way to sync cPanel configurations and also a central control panel accross all cPanel nodes.

To be honest as a hosting provider I can't believe this functionality was not added before now. It seems like something most hosting companies would kill for. The ability to link two cpanel servers for redundancy should be in the next major release!
Please cPanel! There is really no GOOD alternative to cPanel (except LxAdmin) and that barely compares.

There are so many tutorials available on web to mirror or take a
backup of your web files with different methods, here I am creating this
article for my future reference and here I’ll be using a very simple
and versatile command of Linux to create a backup of your website. This tutorial will help you to sync data between your two web servers with “Rsync“.
Sync Two Apache Web Server
The purpose of creating a mirror of your Web Server with Rsync
is if your main web server fails, your backup server can take over to
reduce downtime of your website. This way of creating a web server
backup is very good and effective for small and medium size web
businesses.
Advantages of Syncing Web Servers
The main advantages of creating a web server backup with rsync are as follows:
directories at backup server that have been deleted from the main web
server.
How To Sync Two Apache Web Servers
Let’s proceed with setting up rsync to create a mirror of your web server. Here, I’ll be using two servers.
Main Server
Backup Server
Step 1: Install Rsync Tool
Here in this case web server data of webserver.example.com will be mirrored on backup.example.com. And to do so first, we need to install Rsync on both the server with the help of following command.
[root@tecmint]# yum install rsync

We like the idea of having a high availabiliy NAS shared between two servers, however this would mean that cPanel would have to accept to have the same account on two servers both using the same DNS cluster and allowing for all functions to be compatible with this configuration.

I would love to be able to have multiple cpanel VMs behind a load balancing device such as Netscaler to build out a farm.

I don't see this feature coming in the current form. Too complex in the current way services are deployed. The Cluster/HA options in other control panels are coming with a lot of strings attached. Every kind of services (Mail, Cpanel, Database, httpd..) is different in terms of HA and scaleability.
Perhaps with CentOS 7.0 and the docker hype a decoupling can be done.
Currently to stick to a Virtual Server (on KVM HA or VMWARE HA) will be an easier option. When it comes to costs for maintaining such a cluster/HA setup, it looks a bit cheaper.

I Believe this feature would be a gamechanger for cPanel as we know it.
Some things to consider though.
If this feature comes to cPanel, i would love to see an option where cPanel would create a full-scale "webserver-cluster" of the available webservers, where storage and mysql would be remotely accessed.
We're in deep need of this before we can go on and use cPanel for our environment!

I've been thinking about this a bit more.
This feature sound's very complicated and I think there are two parts or steps to make this become true.
PART 1
The first is to give sysadmins the ability to set up thier own high availability system :
cPanel already supports DNS clustering and an external mysql server. An e-mail only custer would also be handy, but there is already a feature for this.
We could mount a high availability NAS or SAN storage for homedirs and set up IP loadbalancers. IP loadbalancers can be set to check availibility and to perform sticky round'n robin (for sessions) etc.
The first thing we would need is for cPanel to allow to create an account with a domain that already exists in the DNS cluster without changing the account's IP and without changing the existing files in the homedir as the users files will already exist on the NAS or SAN storage.
We would also need cPanel to make sure that both servers play well together while sharing the same homedir over our NAS/SAN mounted drive space.
PART 2
The second part, which would come after the first part, would be to provide the technology give high availibility out of the box.
There are some systems that already do this, like for instance HybridCluster. To achieve this, they set DNS ttl to the lowest value possible, and automaticaly change an account's IP to point it to the other server when one server goes down. They use ZFS to keep files in sync, but a NAS or SAN based system would be just as good for our usage. Some form of heartbeat would need to be used to automaticaly change the DNS settings for an account to point to the new IP.
Another path instead of NAS or SAN could be to install a proxy on all servers, and sync homedir files with rsync in deamon mode for instance. When a site is moved automaticaly to the other server the proxy DNS would be changed to point to the second server that would proxy back to the first server until the files were in sync then the proxy would be inversed to that people who have a dns cache on their router are proxied to the second server. If a server stops responding, all sites are moved to a working server automaticaly and admins could easily move a site from one server to the other without any downtime.
All of this would need Part 1 to be working so in our view, this feature request could be split into two features, one making cPanel compatible with this type of setup while requiring sysadmins use external storage for homedirs and their own ip balancers, and the second making cPanel able to manage high availabily all on it's own, allowing WHM root users to simply add a new server to a cluster and let cPanel manage the rest.

Their is already a feature for multiple apache servers currently tagged as planned.
I presume that feature would allow websites to keep up and running.
Maybe we could then hope of an email only custer that would help with email high availability too.
Things like FTP/SSH could come later.

there are ways to do it, lot of big players already do it on their own,
but I dont think cPanel will do it until 2020...
by then, CentOS will already natively support it...

Cpanel, please... listen to customers.. This isn't just another nice to have feature. It's a critical, vital part that should have been included years ago.

I would second that this is a vital feature. The larger hosts have the resources to do something custom, we are a small provider and this is why we rely on cPanel. At a most basic level, just making it easy to administer multiple Apache backend servers via cPanel, and build in support for real-time sync of files is a must, in the same way as we can currently sync DNS. Everything else at this stage is a "nice to have".

A lot of the problems with failover solutions have to do with limitations of the DNS system. In retrospect, it should have been designed with the capability of defining primary and failover IPs for hostnames.
There are some third-party DNS providers who sort of do this, however; so if cPanel came up with a solution for the cloning aspect, it could be implemented using a third-party DNS provider that supports failover.

With cpanel DNS cluster and 5s TTLs it could be possible to introduce high availability based on an active - standby scenario where cpanel accounts are provisioned to two servers. Automated SQL replication and rsync data replication at admin specified intervals would be the most basic configuration options with options to automatically and dynamically hold sync'ing off during heavy server load.
This would be a remarkable step forward for cpanel. The plan I outline here is merely plucked from my imagination at this moment, with the talent at your company you could devise architectures that allow us hosting business owners to stay at the cutting edge and remain competitive in a marketplace where high availability is no beginning to be not only a sought after feature, but one that is expected even in basic paid hosting configurations.

the load balancing feature would be nice from an upgrade perspective. say you want to upgrade wordpress (as an example) on one server and see if that causes any issues with clients. if it does you can easily move them back to the pre-upgraded system.
also - if one server is under a DOS attack - you can move sites to the other server. (yes?)

This could be a useful feature for a number of reasons.
1. Eventually, a successful site will start exhausting server resources, even on a high end server.
2. Sometimes, a site might be featured in news or someplace, and there will be a spike in traffic.
Here is one possible idea to set this up:
1. create the concept of a 'cluster' in cPanel
2. allow users to add/remove servers to/from cluster
3. automatically configure MySQL replication among servers in the cluster
4. automatically configure GFS file system (or something else) for user home folders
5. automatically add multiple A/AAAA records to dns zones (this will load-balance requests between servers); maybe allow load balancer IP to be configured?
6. automatically configure dns zones on all servers
7. automatically configure email servers
8. etc..
The point of this setup is:
1. load balancing - if a site has a huge traffic spike, the system will be able to handle the load
2. high availability - if a server goes down, various daemons' configuration allows everything to keep working as if nothing has happened

It would be really appreciate if WHM have this kind of features, in this is scenario we only need to create to DNS enteries and backup server one should be lower priority. when the Main Web Server went down without fail backup server start respond to queries.

This feature is really urgent for cpanel server administrator, and i think it should have high priority.
What can be done manually is to rsync files thru cronjob. But what about databases and ftp accounts and the protect dir. this really needs cpanel developers to be able to do it

We will soon be creating a CEPH custer in order to test KuberDock and it would be nice if we could also use it for user's home dirs.
I'm still not sure that it should be up to cPanel to deal with the file sync. Well at least for the first versions they could maybe give guides and focus on making sure users details outside their homedir and apache configs are in sync.

Having multiple servers sharing SSL certificates and synchronizing IMAP accounts via dovecot should be feasible, I have plans to implement this between a cPanel and a non-cPanel server, but it would be nice to have upstream support.

Could using Amazon EFS (https://aws.amazon.com/efs/details/) with the upcomming remote MySQL service (Without root access) be able to do the job?
There would be some tweaking at the level of applying change and restarting apache that would need to be configured, plus some alternatives to quota's.
but it may be possible

Indeed, this is one of the most expensive workaround for each hosting company.
Several of my clients are asking similar things every after day often and thus the only option to overcome such issues is to either leave cpanel or alter the environment leading the updates un-installed for years.

We use multiple dedicated cPanel servers around the globe. As a server administrator this would be the best option I can hope for in cPanel. With this option available within cPanel we won't need to make complicated settings and look to other software to provide HA, LoadBalancing and Replication to our customers.
@benny could you please update us all about the plan to include this feature in near future soon?

Hey all! This isn't yet defined on the roadmap, but we're definitely talking about the best ways to implement this. If we had our druthers we would already be working on it! The good news is that we're slowing removing the giant impediments that are core to the product that have been preventing us from working on this already. As soon as there's an update, I'll make sure to share!

I have customers hounding me about redundancy and I can't promise them anything. I don't have the money, time or resources to setup a complete backup server separate from cPanel/WHM. If they implemented this, it would save a lot of peoples bacon.

Any possibility to consider this request? This feature is a must to bring cPanel to 2020. This is more and more frequently required by VPS customers, hence we are losing sales because of this lack of such a modern feature! :-(

We have begun heavy research phases of High Availability for cPanel. We have a forecasted roadmap for HA and we will continue adding additional information to it as we flesh out the project further.

Let's be honest, when High Availability comes into the mix, it's time companies/customers etc. move away from cPanel and start to invest seriously in their infrastructure. cPanel is not designed for HA, and the complexities to implement mean that it's highly unlikely this will happen in any short time frame.
Unfortunately for many people using cPanel and requiring HA, this is likely driven by an end customer who doesn't have a strong development team to support this. There is no middle ground unfortunately. cPanel is designed for quick and easy use for both end user and supplier. HA is a large leap, it requires the skills and expertise to support. It's not a simple click and config like cPanel is.
cPanel is great. I use regularly for certain projects. I also actively avoid for other projects. Scale is important. You don't build a saw mill with a hand saw moving extremely fast..... Right tools for the right job.

Let's be honest, when High Availability comes into the mix, it's time companies/customers etc. move away from cPanel and start to invest seriously in their infrastructure. cPanel is not designed for HA, and the complexities to implement mean that it's highly unlikely this will happen in any short time frame.
Unfortunately for many people using cPanel and requiring HA, this is likely driven by an end customer who doesn't have a strong development team to support this. There is no middle ground unfortunately. cPanel is designed for quick and easy use for both end user and supplier. HA is a large leap, it requires the skills and expertise to support. It's not a simple click and config like cPanel is.

I find it suprising that this is still something not delivered after 10 years of asking. Poor show cPanel.
