If people fancy the extra effort (!), then it is possible to do the same
as Brunel and have separate accounting for each cluster - basically, a
separate local accounting DB and publishing job for each cluster, with
<SiteName>cluster.SiteName</SiteName> in the config file.

We don't have a dedicated site BDII, so I run an instance on each CE.
Then if one falls over/needs maintenance, we only need to change once
entry in the GOC DB (and wait!).
The downside is that this can confuse the info system if you let one CE
get too out-of-date compared with the other(s).
