You should have configured the server group before installing server B. That is, tell server A it is a member of a server group, and then install B, telling it to share the database. You can install everything on A whenever you want. I would probably install everything on B once B knows that it's a member of the server group.
My preference is to install EE, FB, etc on each of the server group hosts (or on some other host, but I have a dedicated instance of EE, FB, etc. for each member of the server group) and point each to the local host (or to its dedicated server) rather than to the server group (an alias, etc.). That way, you're more guaranteed to get proper failover if there is a problem with one of the hosts or something.
