If you're automating failover it may be easier to have 3+ servers so that you can operate on the basis of a quorum of 2. The automation and failover methodology you select will depend on your networks options, software stack and availability policy. On the off chance PostgreSQL and Pacemaker fit your stack feel free to contact me off-list for more detailed advice but otherwise it'd be worth posting back with more details on your expectations, app, OS, DB, etc. Andrew
