The other option is to have each of the hosts setup individually, and
do the checks against all 3 as normal, but use the check_cluster
plugin to ensure you get a good result from at least one of the hosts.
The alternative, as Marc suggested, is a custom script that takes the
host address you have, splits it, and executes the command until it
gets a good result.
