We have a two node cluster and we are planning on adding a third.
Question is, we want the third machine to be more robust, thus we want
more memory, hence we would like to run 64bit.
Will this be a problem if our two current clustered machines are 32bit?
Our data resides on a fiber connected shared data silo.

Assuming each cluster has its own data store (postmasters can't share
that between machines) then there should be no problem.

P.s. what do you mean by two node cluster? What software are you
using to do this?

Red Hat clustering suite. The machines are accessing the data on a
common san.
