Why does administration require that all the machines be hosted at one site?
Most administration is by remote login, and for the physical maintenance you

Well, that is interesting, but not a requirement. If the machines are not at
the same site, just don't use them for multi-machine configurations; just
pick different ones. (Hey, maybe someone wants to test WAN configurations.)

I don't know what you mean by this.
