2 Nagios boxes running together in different locations

[Daniel Wittenberg]

I would agree with this as well, usually easier I think then trying to cross-connect everything together and make sense of all of it.  Make them standalone, and then use something like Multisite which can bring all of them together in one view so it all appears to be one box setup.

This is exactly how I do things, except I have three sites.

I've dealt with this situation before, and I've ended up
implementing two mostly standalone Nagios systems.  They each
check their own site, so if their external network goes away they
are still able to monitor and alert for the things they're
responsible for (you have to use out-of-band notifications of
course).  They also each check each other's *site*, ala the other
site's firewall, so the Nagios server at site A can alert and let
you know if site B goes away, but it *doesn't* try to alert you
for all of the hosts and services at site B.
