Yup, it would make more sense to have another machine for the cluster, but as specified, we don't have that luxury at the moment. And I'm basically looking for an excuse (where there isn't one yet) to install a cluster on one machine (I'm like a boy with a new toy).
I prefer my staging on the exact same machine as LIVE so it mimics the * exact* live environment. Since its running on a different instance it should not affect the live instance if it crashes.
