+## Best practices
+### Diversity
+Data centers are often organized with hierarchical failure domains.  Common 
failure domains
+include hosts, racks, rows, and PDUs.  If you have this information available, 
it is wise to tag
+the mesos-slave with them as
+[attributes](https://mesos.apache.org/documentation/attributes-resources/).
+
+When it comes time to schedule jobs, Aurora will automatically spread them 
across the failure
+domains as specified in the
+[job 
configuration](configuration-reference.md#specifying-scheduling-constraints).
+
+Note: in virtualized environments like EC2, the only attribute that usually 
makes sense for this
+purpose is `host`.

-#### Symptoms
-The scheduler is registered, and [receiving

-#### Solution
-Check that your slaves are configured with `host` and `rack` attributes.  
Aurora requires that
-slaves are tagged with these two common failure domains to ensure that it can 
safely place tasks

 ## Changing Scheduler Quorum Size
 Special care needs to be taken when changing the size of the Aurora scheduler 
quorum.
 Since Aurora uses a Mesos replicated log, similar steps need to be followed as 
when
