I need to assure that a value is unique in two columns (this is not a “two columns” index issue).

Table A
Column A1       Column A2

Memphis         New York     -> ok
San Francisco   Miami        -> ok
Washington      Chicago      -> ok
Miami           Las Vegas    -> Forbidden ! Miami already exists 

Is it possible ?
