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.<br><br>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.<br>

documentation that would help with deployment planning for a Nagios 3

have to be in order to properly deploy and manage a large system environment
(over 1,000 hosts and probably more than 5,000 services monitored). It would be
good if anyone has at least the basic understanding of the base system and on a
per service check basis, how much memory is required and how much disk space we
would need to plan for.</span></font></div>
