How well does this scale if you're watching 1,000's - or 10's of thousands - of servers, each of which might require a significant nesting? Seems like the map management metaphor would be overwhelmed, but are you (or anyone) using nesting to manage a large number of devices (e.g. servers)?

Nested maps, using the Map Status probe, are working cleanly for us. I don't know that we'd use this requested feature in lieu of the Map Status approach.

Am I the only person using nested maps for this?

Rich,

Here are my thoughts for what they are worth.


1) Yes. It would help us manage our maps much easier.

2) I can see an SNMP probe for a server while an HTTP probe for a web
site on that server

3) I can also see a server running Vmware (or other virtual service)
where you would need to ping different IP's on the same probe.

4) Separate would be nice but not a requirement as far as I am
concerned.

5) Most definitely each probe should have its own notifier.
