There is a 3rd party appliance that helps to simulate load balancing. It in essence creates a replication type of setup and keeps multiple databases in sync on different servers. But the data and log files of each cannot be shared.I can't remember the name of the vendor, but it is out there.
Xkoto or Gridscale maybe?
