Deployment Architecture

Feature Request: Session Failover

We currently have multiple search heads with a load balancer in front of them.
Users are logged out if a search head goes down. Requesting that sessions are replicated between search head and one peer search head so that searches will continue(in the background) and session can continue if a search head goes down or is restarted.

Thanks,

Rob
