I just tested it and it works. I had two entries in DNS; one pointing to
a not existing host and another to an existing. Depending on the answer
from the DNS yum first connects to the existing host and everything just
works. If it connects to the non existing host it times out and then
goes to the existing host. I am surprised that it works.
If we do that, some users might get a short timeout using yum, but it
seems like it should work.
In the case one of the machines goes down.
