Icecast - Aug 2015 - Question about fallback ability to another server

Hello everyone.

  I have two servers that both run Icecast2. I was wondering if anyone
knew of a way to have the fallback stream of one server redirect to a
stream on the other server? I know it may sound odd doing this, but
one of my servers doesn't have the required storage to hold the
fallback files but is overall more stable. So I want to use the stable
server when live streaming, but the other, less stable server when
just playing the fallback stream.

  Thanks a lot for any advice.

Good evening,

I'm a little bit short on time. Why don't use just run the source client
for the fallback on the other system?

(Also: on-demand relays could do the job. But only if the stream is
running on the fallback machine anyway.)
