We had to do the same thing for att.com when I worked at AT&T. The funniest thing is being oncall and then the Super Bowl ad comes on.
"Countdown 5,4,3,2,1"
"Switchover to Server 2"
"Switchover to Server 3"
etc, via pager. You could set your watch to it

We were 100% on the LAN, but the WAN had some outages do to dead lines. Servers were 100% even during Version upgrades.

Ive worked for people who achieved such numbers also. I just didnt think it was worth the cost and effort.
