VmWare Fault tolerance set up

Hi Team,

I have a quick question regarding Fault tolerance set up in vmware .

Scenario:

     I have an environment with 22 servers and need to set up FT for it.

Requirement:

     This application requires same IPs to be retained on both DCs \ clusters in vmware.

Plan to Implement:

     1. Set up same same infrastructure in both clusters (this includes IPs, cpu, ram,storage etc.exactly same in both cluster). Lets call the clusters as DC-1 & DC-2. Then, shutdown the DC-2 to avoid           IP conflict.

     2. Set up active-passive fail-over

     3. DC-1 will always be up and syncing the data between DC-2 (which will be in shutdown mode) all the time

     4. If there is a host failure in DC-1, FT will bring up the passive cluster and vms will serve the data from there

Question:

     Will the above scenario work?

     Any suggestions to simplify or improve this design?

     Any documentation that will guide me here?

Thanks alot in advance!.
