<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=840152211-30092005>What would be the
best way approach the following : </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=840152211-30092005></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=840152211-30092005>10 Blades
running Linux (so each blade has its own IP address)</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=840152211-30092005>Together they
are one database server </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=840152211-30092005></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=840152211-30092005>a) I want to monitor
each blade to ensure they are up. If down I need Nagios to tell me specifically
which blade is down. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=840152211-30092005></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=840152211-30092005>I've played with the
hosts.cfg file and put in multiple IP addresses but if one goes down, the info
returned to Nagios isn't telling me </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=840152211-30092005>anything specific
(or do I need to tweak this myself ?) </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=840152211-30092005></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=840152211-30092005>I'm using check_ssh
rather than ping as there is a firewall between Nagios and the blades which
doesn't allow ping through. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=840152211-30092005></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=840152211-30092005>Any help would be
appreciated! </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
