Hi there,
In order for this setup to work, I could suggest a few things:
Use an object storage to store your upload files, that way both webservers will have access to the same files, and you would not need to synchronize the files using
lsync
for exampleThe two webservers need to be identical in order for that setup to work. The best thing to do is to first setup 1 server, then take a backup of that server and create the second server from that backup.
For more information on how to get started with load balancing in general, I would recommend the following tutorial:

Hope that this helps.
Best,
Bobby
