    <p>First of all there is no ACS backup solution exist in Azure so developers and users are open to create what the best they could come up. Based on my understanding if you want to create a Fail-over scenario for your application to role over from one ACS to another ACS, that can be done in your relying party application (website) as below:</p> <ol> <li>You have ACS1 and ACS2 configured where ACS2 is the backup. Both ACS use the configured to use same Relying Party Application with identical Realm and Return URL </li> <li><p>In your Relying Party application, when there is a failure to login to ACS, ACS provides JSON-encoded HTTP URL parameter error details to the relying party application </p> <p>2.1 It is possible that error was withing ACS 2.2 It is possible the ACS endpoint was not even found</p></li> <li><p>In both cases you can handle the error in your code and create a Retry Policy to try ACS2. You can add code to try when to go ACS2 and when to keep trying ACS1 depend on how do you want. </p></li> </ol> <p>If you end up having 2 ACS endpoint, just try to keep them identical so you will get exact same result no matter which one actually authenticate to RP application request. </p> <p>If you want to backup ACS at management level take a look at <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/b/alikl/archive/2011/05/18/manage-windows-azure-appfabric-access-control-service-acs-with-powershell.aspx" rel="nofollow">Windows Azure AppFabric Access Control Service (ACS) – Backup and Restore Resources</a>, it might required you to be available in case of ACS failure otherwise, you may want to automate it in your RP application (big work). </p>
