Load balancing between web servers

    We are planning to use WordPress so that there are two Apache web servers for fail-over and performance purposes. We have a load balancer balacing the load between the servers. The problem is that also requests to use admin tool may be directed to any of the web servers. As the end result the images downloaded through the admin tool end up only in one of the web servers. Same applies to template changes made through admin tool. If changes were made only to one server, it would be easier to just replicate these changes to other web server. However, in our current configuration changes may be made in any of the web servers.
    I would greatly appreciate your experiences and recommendations how to best solve this issue.

    1. you could share the WP installation on a (remote) partition that both servers have access to. That way, any changes via one server would be immediately seen by the other.
    2. you could use rsync to constantly keep the files nsync ??
