Uh, thanks for the Availability 101 course. It was a good refresher since I haven't been involved with that level of availability since 1981 when I was involved in clustering Univac mainframes. Back to "all your eggs in one basket:" I still don't get the point or sagacity of putting the primary and backup in the same rack, let alone the same location. Any type of catastrophe is going to wipe everything out. Depending on site specifics, even some things that are less than catastrophic can result in total loss. How do you protect yourself when everything is in one place?
