I'm with @JaredBusch this is what DNS aliases are for.

Prior to the changes, update your DNS TTL to be extremely short.
That way there will truly be little downtime for any properly configured system.

Could I make a DNS alias called HistoryServer Then point it to both History1? Then point all apps to HistoryServer. When ever an upgrade comes due, I can just update the DNS alias in one place?
