    My question is how does one ensure that the system will failover when there is an emergency and still ensure that the system failover does not occur when their is system "hiccup"?

    No idea. There should be ways to delay, or perhaps limit the failovers i some way. If you're having some network issues, it might be better to have users experience some delays on the primary than failing back and forth to a secondary.

    It depends on your setup and the situation, but I've seen places where clustering is failing back and forth because of some network or other non-client issue, and this results in client downtime, and at times, someone just removing a node or two from the cluster so clients can work.
