Judy,

We do something similiar to that. (but still use Failover groups)
We have 7 sunrays servers.
They are configured this way.

1 pair in "Engineering" failover group
1 pair in "QA" failover group
1 pair in "General Use" failover group
1 individual machine for sysadmin use.

Each failover group has a master for the pair.
We picked one of the machines as our master for user card tokens.
On that server we dump the users using utuser into a file.
On the other "Master Servers" we load that token file.  This way all failover 
groups have the same tokens.

We use a combination of amgh and nis to map a user to the "machine / group" 
they should be on.  This way you still get a bit of load balancing within the 
failover group.

>From a network standpoint they are all on the same subnet.
We do not run dhcp servers on any of the sunray servers.

We run a separate solaris machine for dhcp that sunray get addresses from.

When a user sticks a token in the amgh script figures out what "machine / 
group" the token needs to be on and switches them over to it.

Hopefully all that made sense.  If not then let me know.
