I would say that keeping the rrd files in sync, is the touchest task.
How do you mix two rrd files which both have some different holes in their information?
I am using a solution where the idea is to eliminate single points of failure. All clients send data to both hobbit servers, and both servers store rrd data and both servers have http service.
Eliminating single points of failure is a simple method which gives an uptime sufficient for my university, without resorting to more advanced methods.
