Thank you for pointing out this option. I will keep it in mind once
we use MapCache one fine day. For now I think having to dive into
that seems too large of a task. <br>

<br>
<br>
Wouldn't MapCache be a better tool for that task? I think of a
configuration based on fallback caches:

<br>
We use Mapserver 7.4.3 on Ubuntu. We use it as WMS client to
collect several WMS into one place, serving them to our
application.
<br>
The task now is to define a fallback for one of the WMS source
servers. That means:
<br>
<br>
Mapserver will have two technically identical sources for the
same output layer, only the URL is different. Is there a way to
define (in mapfile preferably) that one source is only used if
the other fails (is offline)? I thought of layer groups but then
I will have a duplicate call if both sources are available. I do
know this would be a better task for a load balancer or proxy
but we do not have that option at this time.
<br>
<br>
Thank you for your time and thoughts.

Best
