We have a database failover process in place that leverages a component that will also do load balancing. For reasons due to the client's environment we want n+ (many) of these load balancing components, however this means we will have many failover scripts on different servers that will all want to force a failover at the same time if a failure occurs.

Yes, the command is still running on the same system. It doesn't matter where the connection comes from.
