In reality, you can’t have more than one of everything. But you can have more than one of a few things (i.e. critical servers and firewalls). If that doesn’t make sense then at least keep your network inventory current, keep your services contracts up to do, and keep your vendor phone #s handy for when problems do arise. You’ll only know the true answer to this by doing a business impact analysis that uncovers what’s most important and how long the business can survive without each “thing”.
