to-be
Explanation:
Hi Alex,

"A tendere", often in expressions like "prospettiva/modello a tendere", indicates a planned or hoped-for development. It often corresponds to the English attributive "to-be" ("a to-be model", as opposed to "as-is").

Here are a couple of examples that might make the concept clearer:

Ingresso di un partner industriale nelle parti deboli della catena del valore, che assicuri valore incrementale immediato ed a tendere agli azionisti

Elevare l’efficienza complessiva del Sistema Marche, creando a tendere un sistema d’intermediazione digitale a livello regionale

Your phrase means that the final configuration of the network will feature two servers but they aren't in place yet.

HTH,

Giles

You could perhaps use something like:

To-be specification includes two MQ servers with load-balancing
or
Full operating specification includes two MQ servers with load-balancing

Cheers,

Giles

Explanation:
"Tendere a" appears to express the "intention to". In the context of proposed IT changes, it may translate to the intention to implement a given configuration for the specific purpose.
