NDOUtils and Status Information

[Janet Post]

Hello All,

Is there a method to pull nagios status information from an NDOUtils
database for nagios at start time?

I have used nagios 1.4 for a long time, using the database for my status
information.  I had linuxHA set up to switch to start nagios on a second
node should some natural disaster take my production nagios offline.
The second nagios would gather all status information from the database
and continue on as if nothing had happened.   Other than the alert that
told us of the demise of our server, there was little to no interruption
in monitoring.  Alerts stayed acknowledged.  Scheduled Downtime stayed
scheduled.  Notifications we did not want to hear from anymore stayed
muted.

I have now upgraded to nagios 2.8 and installed NDOUtils so I can
continue to work this way....however, I cannot seem to find a way for
nagios to discover the status of the dead nagios host the way nagios 1.4
did so effortlessly.  Am I missing something?

Janet
