how-to Define a backup ldap server

Recently I had to connect to Active Directory. That's works fine, except
one issue to manage: In our infrastructure, the load balancing between main
ldap server and backup must be done by the applications, it's not automatic
via a load balancer or what ever. Is it due to AD, or is it just a
paricularity of our infrastructure, I don't know.
Anyway, looking through spring features, I discovered that it could be
done, without changing any code, jsut spring security-ldap file.
Basically, I just had to replace, in
org.springframework.ldap.core.support.LdapContextSource bean  url by urls,
and to list the differents ldap server.
The detailed documentation is here:
