If I want to host a website on two different servers in order to ensure it continue loading in case of a failure of one of the servers, DirectAdmin does not allow me to do this (i mean built in GUI feature/s or a detailed tutorial that one would follow to achieve that)?
No load balancing/failover/complete fault tolerant setup built into the DirectAdmin?

By default it is not - but if it is just 1 website it is relatively simple
1. from php my admin or from shell create MySQL Master <> Master replication
