The idea is that you want your www.site.com to be available from  
either server A or server B?

If so, don't worry about switching your DNS.  Instead, configure a  
virtual IP which can be moved from one server to another.  Your DNS A  
record will point to the virtual IP.  When the IP moves, all your  
traffic moves with it.

Heartbeat does this really well.
