If you want loadbalancing with takeover capabilities, Merlin is your only choice. The other two rely on a single Nagios instance to do scheduling and notifications. If that instance crashes, mod_gearman and DNX can't help you get any info at all. It might be possible to couple them so that mod_gearman and Merlin work together, but you'd be entering unknown territory with that mix and I would be quite surprised if it worked completely without problems the first time you try it. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.erics...@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war on peace. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EMC VNX: the world's simplest storage, starting under $10K The only unified storage solution that offers unified management Up to 160% more powerful than alternatives and 25% more efficient.
