A Sun Cluster can either provide redundant servers within a site, or
you can have a single server in each of two sites (limit of 2 nodes in
the Sun Cluster in a disaster-tolerant configuration). So if you lose
a site, you no longer have server redundancy. So you can't have both
inter-site and intra-site redundancy at the same time. Difficult
choice to have to make.
