This is one of the reasons why I'm much more strongly inclined toward HA at the hypervisor.  *By necessity* if you want HA at the application layer, then the application must be designed for it, and therefore setup is unique to your application.  But if you do HA at the hypervisor, then it doesn't matter what your application is; you have HA of your application, no matter what it is, and the setup is identical  for any and all types of application.
