Hi Paul,
I've worked on a couple clustering solutions. We've resolved replication
issues in the past by having a shared drive array that acts as a single
source of code and Verity. It obviously requires an additional piece of
hardware, but you can always use a shared drive off your database server (if
your database server goes down your CF is usually hosed anyway right?). So
that's replication...
There are a couple ways you can go with clustering: a) hardware device
(Coyotepoint, Cisco, F5, Foundry), or b) software (Windows 2000 Load
Balancing, Coyotepoint). Obviously either choices come with +'s & -'s.
If you're a strictly MS shop, MS has some great kb articles on their site
that discuss your various options, all with a not so subtle M$ bent:
