The most common scenario would be to use clustering for redundancy purposes. You don't say which software version(s) your VCS-C/VCS-E are running, but go here: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/unified-communications/telepresence-video-communication-server-vcs/products-installation-and-configuration-guides-list.html and choose the "VCS Cluster Creationn and Maintenance Guide" relevant to your deployment.

It's all there in the deployment guide. 

Traversal zone is only relevant between the VCS-C and the VSC-E, neither MCU nor TMS comes into it as far as tz goes.
