Hi Forrest,

This is very close to the option we use - we have 2 identical servers, and keep the configs the same using Visual Sourcesafe to shadow all changes on server1 to server2. Voicemail and other lib files are stored on the spare server and exported to the primary server using NFS.

If the primary server fails, DNS SRV records have the Polycom phones failover to the spare server. We physically move the PRIs from one server to the other.

 Each server has it's own TDM cards installed. Phones on Site A will
 register with the server on Site A, and phones on Site B will
 register with the server on Site B. Then using Polycom phones, they
 will failover to using the server not on their site, if their primary
 isn't available.  I have setup scripts to copy the dialplan from one
 server to the other then reload asterisk nightly.  The biggest Con to
 this is I have to be sure my dialplans don't get different.  The
 user's voicemail wouldn't be available until their primary server is
 back up, but that's OK.
