Using two nagios servers...

[Chris Beattie]

Your servers will probably be fine servicing the extra Nagios polling,
unless they are overloaded already.

 

Since I run Nagios on virtual machines, however, I tried to keep the
load on my failover Nagios server minimized.  My failover Nagios server
runs a cron job that uses the check_nagios plugin to monitor the state
of the primary Nagios server.  If the primary server is up and running,
the failover server will just rsync the state and configuration files
from the primary.  If the primary server becomes unavailable, the cron
job will start the Nagios service on the failover server and keep it
running until it detects the primary has recovered.

Hi All,

 

I am planning to configure all the servers in my client environment in
two Nagios servers(in two different locations) in order to create Back
up.

 

Please let me know whether there will be any overload on the servers as
two Nagios servers will be polling them.

 

 

Thanks,

Ravi G
