Does it resolve to the same IP from both servers or are they different?

If the zone is being transferred, then I would highly assume the data is
identical.
As for replicating the zone, do you mean the zone is AD Integrated? If so,
it would be getting replicated as part of the AD replication process, since
the zone data exists in the actual AD database.

As far as I remember, you can map to each physcial member in a cluster. But
the idea is to map to the ClusterIP. Can I assume the cluster IP is the IP
in DNS? Unless there's more than one IP for the name showing up? If so, you
would only want the Cluster IP to be the one showing for the server's
hostname record in DNS.
