You could run the clustering several ways. We use multiple machines with multiple clusters. Each machine, right now, supports up to three different clusters. So machine A has an instance that is part of cluster G. But so does machine B and C. You could very easily do this with one machine though. Have Machine A contain cluster G, but maintain instace x,y,z of that same cluster. If one instance goes down, the rest should carry on.
