Failover Monitoring.

[Eddie]

Hello all,


On reading the Nagios 3 Documentation re' failover monitoring, there
are some things I'd like to ask.

To keep services status information up-to-date on the slave the master
sends all service check results to the slave.
If monitoring fails-over to the slave, how is the status information
sent to the new slave so that it is then kept updated with new status
information, or do we need to set this up manually after the failover?

Couldn't we nullify the need to keep two separate stores of status
information data, by keeping it in one place? Is it possible to have
the status information stored on a third host (say on an NFS) that
both the master and slave have access to?

Is it possible to have more than one slave?


Are there any other resources that go into more detail on failover
(and redundant monitoring)?


Thanks,
Eddie.
