In our case ALL the servers in the DNS-RR pool *need* to see & serve
the exact same data. The catalogs are identical (puppet controlled),
the cache/agg folder for THREDDS is even "synchronized" between
servers via a BitTorrent Sync share. The DNS-RR pooling method is not
perfect, but is the easiest to setup.

The goal is to serve the same data using as many data pipes as
possible... and hope that all servers "answer" when their IP is chosen
at random from the DNS-RR pool :)
