Nagios deployment planning

[Alex Dehaini]

Alot of things count when deploying nagios. Take for instance - if you run
your service check every 5 minutes, it is not the same when you run it every
30 seconds.

So, throw some more light and we might be able to help. I run about 1000
services with 300 hosts. I use a P4 2.0 Ghz with 2 gb of ram. So far, nagios
can take the load. I check services every 90 seconds.
