We had a two servers rac that went down.
The tar result was: Use switch for interconnet and do not use cross-over
network cable.

I've never experience this myself, but I do know that running a two-node cluster with ethernet cross-over cables for the interconnect network can cause the entire cluster to fail when one node crashes. You must use a hub/switch for the interconnect networks (in production anyway). And of course, to avoid single-points-of-failure, you should use a separate switch for each network.
