Hi team, Is there any method to make high availability servers using cPanel / WHM? I mean, if one server is down, the other should be automatically working and keep sites online. Is it possible?

  Yes. you can make the server itself high available using like for example a high available SAN and multiple compute nodes using this SAN as storage or you can make the web stack high available by copying the files and databases to a second server and doing Failover/Load Balancing among them.

  cPanel does not support HA at the moment. I believe AUTOM8N from @gnusys is the only product on the market which supposed to fill this gap other than having a custom solution.

  Thank you so much for the reply. I have more than 1000GB at /home (More than 250GB) so this plugin also is not useful I guess.

  It's all about the infrastructure. If you have 1 or 10Gbit private network between the cluster members this shouldn't be a problem. You can always reach them out and see if their solution works for you. If not then a custom solution is the way to go :)

  Also, in case you haven't seen it we will be supporting HA we're looking for feedback and trying to gather user needs now.
