Hello, 1. Should we setup the 3-node cluster in each site Or just one cluster in any of the sites will do, as a single cluster can collect logs from both sites, as the vCenters are in linked mode? You can create 3 node Log insight cluster each site (Site A and Site B). Enable log forwarding from Site A to Site B log insights and from Site B to Site A log insights. Any planned activity / DR where a Log Insight is down you will not lose any data.
