Layer2 over Datacenters

Hi there,

I wonder how you guys feel about spanning a layer 2 network over 2 datacenters lets say 10 km apart with fiber uplinks (2 routes).

The reason to do it would be less effort to migrate machines between sites and a possible auto failover. A big downside would be a split brain scenario.

So I just wonder what you think and why. I rather would do this with different layer 3 networks so I would know where vms are running. For disaster I could fail over the whole subnet.
