[jadmin] Jabberd2 load-balanced

So I tried load-balancing jabberd2 (s11) today.  I didn't find any
step-by-step instructions so I kinda made it up as I went along.

I stuck two servers behind a hardware load-balancer.  Each server
contains one c2s and one s2s - one of the s2s designated as "default".
I also set up a third server comprising resolver, router, sm and mysql.
So both c2s/s2s servers talk to the router on the single backend server.


This configuration seems to work - took care of 15k jab_simul users
without a hitch.   Has anyone done something similar?  Is there a more
optimal way to load-balance jabberd2?

Thanks!
