    Thanks for your reply, Elliott. I wanted to be sure there were no gotchas lurking before I recommended this.

    All four of your points are certainly correct. As for the licensing, though, this configuration is certainly more frugal than the other scale-out configurations that I have found. It lacks a public-facing server, of course, but it provides high availability inside our firewall, which is what I've been looking for.

    Provided the hardware is robust enough it is a workable model and cost effective. And Scale-out can be quite expensive. Since you have 2 separate SSRS servers you might consider putting a load balancer in front of them to control the loads..
