The documentation I have read other places indicates that you set up two servers to function as load balancers. Of these two, one is active and the other is monitoring the first server. Should the first server appear to be incapacitated to the second server, it triggers a "stoneth" device that guarentees that the first server is dead (eg. it killes the power on the primary server), then it takes over the roll of the primary server. When the first server wakes back up from being stoned, it discovers that the second server is acting as the primary server and begins acting as the backup server by monitoring the second server.
Describing this process and setup in detail would make a nice article of its own, and would have needlessly complicated this article.
