Hi All,

I plan to have HQ and DR network across WAN.
Five servers each at HQ and DR sites.

Questions are;
1. Should i create one BIG cluster consisting of servers from HQ and DR (10 servers in 1 cluster across WAN)?
2. or should i create two clusters (one cluster at each site)? 1 for HQ and 1 for DR?
3. or What's the best practice and the reason behind it?

Look forward to your expertise!
 
the cluster communication network needs to be stable and fairly low latency (and ideally redundant, especially if you want to use HA). that rules out most WAN connections, two local clusters are probably the better option in this case.
