Replication implicitly also provides High availability. High availability
may be needed in the presence of replication in any of the following cases:
1. replication is being provided on server side instead of having replicate
on client.
2. each server has multiple network links. High availability is useful in
this scenario if there are any problems in the network, but the server
process keeps running without any problems.

An example configuration might be (nufa/unify)->afr->(optional HA)->client
<->  server
