monitoring over 1500 hosts

[Hendrik B]

Hi Kerry,

I have no experience with so much hosts.

We had problems with more than 2000 Checks within one Nagios Process
so I compiled three different "instances" cutted by the Hostgroups.

At this time our Nagios runs fine with 890 Hosts and 3660 Services
about all three isntances. I think that the scheduler in Nagios 1.x
has some Problem with more than x > 2000 service checks within a 5
minute service check interval.

The bad thing of have more than one nagios on one machine is, that you
have to toggle between different Websites to see them all.

Hope this helps a little.

Best regards
Hendrik
