Hi all, After playing with Nagios with simple single server setup I would like to get my hands dirty and configure Nagios for clusters. In my previous setup I was using Nagios to execute some home grown perl scripts to monitor a single remote system's various components. I simply configured nrpe on remote host and used another host to execute active checks. Now I would like to expand similar technic for a cluster but with a small modification. My current configuration is such that the interactive node of the cluster has a perl script that mimics DSH and launches a single check on each node. This single check bundles each individual component checks so that all components can be check in one shot. This method causes a problem when I would like to disable a single check on a single node. The other method was to launch a specific check on all nodes but this still does not solve the problem of disabling a single check on a single node.
The question I have is what would be the best method for me where I would like to have a setup where I have one central server running nagios/web, multiple distributed servers and for each distributed server many other simple nodes that simply launch checks on regular basis and report back to distributed server which then reports back to central server. I also want to have the freedom to launch active check from central server onto nodes individually (layer below the distributed server). I was wondering if creating a setup where I would let each individual node perfom its checks (seperatly) and report to distributed server via NSCA and use NSCA on distributed server to report back to central server. Then how do I go about allowing central server to perform active check at the bottom level nodes. Any help is greatly appriciated... Thank you, TP. Using Tomcat but need to do more?
