As long as your upstreams/partners are cool with that, there is no related
designation between how addresses are allocated versus how they are
announced.
In other words, TECHNICALLY you could advertise a whole bunch of /30's....
You just run the risk of being filtered and/or ridiculed along the way. :)
But splitting the /22's from the same announcing AS shouldn't cause any
problems as long as you design your connectivity ok.

Subject: Splitting ARIN assignment
Hey all,
I'm looking for an opinion from the group. I have an ARIN /21 assignment and
a new requirement for a second data center. Rather than ask for another
assignment, I would like to advertise one /22 from one location and the
other /22 from the second location both with the same asn. My apps will work
that way, so I don't have an issue internally, but I'm looking for a broader
base opinion on that.
Thanks a lot!
-James
