This is good to know. Seeing as how we are planning to upgrade to Icinga 2 
anyway, it sounds like the builtin cluster functionality is the way to go. 
Thanks for the information!

Hi all ?

Are the two methods given in the docs Chapter 7.7 still basically the generally 
accepted practice for redundancy/failover? Or has some other method come into 
play since these docs were written?

Afaik these docs were inherited from Nagios when forked, and apply only to 
Icinga Core 1.x. Modern systems (our projects at customers for instance) are 
built using technologies such as pacemaker, corosync, drbd even and additional 
tools for failover scenarios in an active/passive cluster.

Simply said, these docs might work, but are imho not the reality.

Using Icinga 2 you'll love the cluster functionality which saves you already an 
amount of time as application cluster with integrated failover capabilities in 
an active/active (multiple nodes possible) cluster setup.

Kind regards,
Michael
