In the Hobbit "contrib" directory, you will find a detailed description
of how you can setup a cluster of Hobbit servers for an HA scenario.

I do have some ideas about other ways of handling this, but it is fairly 
low on my priority list since the cluster mechanism works and can be
setup without any changes to Hobbit itself.
