awx-ha-cluster

AWX is an upstream project of Ansible Tower. Commercial Ansible Tower comes with clustering functionality out of the box. More likely the same functionality can be achieved in AWX by tweaking few file modifications and settings. Ideas from official Ansible Tower installation playbook and sub-reddits.
