[Pgcluster-general] Initial Configuration Questions

In the INSTALL_PGCLUSTER file, an example scenario is given as:

		LOAD BALANCER
		     |
	+------------+---------------+
CLUSTER DB 1			CLUSTER DB 2
	+------------+---------------+
		     |
		REPLICATION SERVER

This is exactly what we need, but I have a few questions (as always!)

For the purposes of a production environment, it is obviously best
practice to place the load balancer, db 1, db 2 and the replication
server on separate boxes, but in a test scenario, can we use two boxes,
each with two functions? e.g. Server 1 could be the load balancer and
db1 , while server 2 could be db2 and the replication function?  This is
just for proof of concept to get everything working...

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

John
