TM1 High Availability Architecture

Can anyone please point me to some documentation on how to setup and Configure TM1 in a high availability environment, I'm all too familiar with Cognos BI installations on a distributed environment, high dependency environment, but would like more info for setting up a TM1 infrastructure.
