Has anyone split a cluster over long haul circuits in a hot standby
role?  I am wondering if this would work if I had a OC3/OC12 connecting
them together over a 700 plus miles.

I have two data centers, rather then create a separate unique cluster
in each I would prefer to split one cluster between them. I plan on
doing this for my redundant management stations anyway but I wonder what
the latency effects would have on the cluster. I am using SPLAT so VRRP
is not used.

I do not plan on load balancing, standby by only.
