If both cluster instances are on the same physical machine, and both instances will be connected with a single virtual web server, you don't need to copy your CFM files. You don't even need to go through creating and deploying an EAR file at all; it's just a simple way of making sure that both servers are configured identically. You could create a CAR file with just server settings, then deploy that after creating the new instance.
