No, it isn't. You have two master servers. Both servers replicate the other one. like master1 <=> master2. If you have a problem with master1, the loadbalancer switch to master2. All changes shall be written to the master2. If the master1 is still alive again, the master2 replicate (if slurpd) all the changes to master1. So this master is updated and can work as befor.
