We use two identically configured servers with a shared DRBD
(http://www.drbd.org/) partition that contains the nagios
state/log/config files, Linux Heartbeat (http://www.linux-ha.org/), and
a role IP address to do redundancy. We can literally yank the plug on
one of the servers and nagios will be back up in about 10 seconds.
I wouldn't say I suggest this solution (we're doing it because the
nagios servers also host a number of other services that we want to
failover automatically) but it does achieve automated redundancy/failover.

Other than the methods described in the official docs
(http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/redundancy.html) and Merlin
(http://www.op5.org/community/projects/merlin) are there any other
suggested solutions for setting up redundant Nagios servers?
