Huh? Phones do a NAPTR/SRV lookup in a specified domain to get a list of SRV 
records to use. The phones don't query the DNS server every time they make a 
call... they have a cache. You also run primary and a secondary (or two 
primary) dns servers. It's a simple scalable solution. It's a shame Asterisk 
doesn't support it.

        Seems to me that it's more logical for the phones to know what their 
        SRV records are than the server.  You shouldn't rely on the dns to 
        ensure that your system is redundant.
