Re: [Nagios-users] Lilac, a Nagios 3.x Configuration Tool, has released 1.0 Release Candidate 1.

2009-03-10 Thread mail
Hi,

We use (or currently working towards) a pair of master servers
(Active/standby) and mutiple slave pairs. With the slaves doing checks in
diffrent locations / envirments and feeding the results up to the central
server.

Re: [Nagios-users] Lilac, a Nagios 3.x Configuration Tool, has released 1.0 Release Candidate 1.

2009-03-10 Thread Kyle O'Donnell
we are doing the same thing

1 active 1 stand-by masters
6 active 6 stand-by slaves

slaves feed  alerts to master

some slaves act somewhat independently from the master, that is they
manage notifications/downtime

some are satellites and the master is used.

our slaves are primarily used to provide presence in our remote data
centres, but we also use them in our larger data centres where a
single nagios instance cannot process the required number of service
checks.

Re: [Nagios-users] Lilac, a Nagios 3.x Configuration Tool, has released 1.0 Release Candidate 1.

2009-03-10 Thread Jonathan Call
Our implementation is pretty much right out of the Nagios documentation. The 
only thing that might be 'special' is that one of our slave servers is actually 
running two instances of Nagios; each instance is considered a 'slave' to the 
master.
