So I will maybe give you a bad answer from a merlin comparaison point of view. What you can do in Shinken is have two sites, each with a scheduler and a poller that will "check" the sites hosts. Then you have a common broker daemon (where you got your merlin database) that will get all data and insert/update this database that Ninja will read. You can have two sites with just a poller in it, but ti's just a matter of network link size in fact (with the first version, only data are send between sites, with just pollers, you got also checks). You can also have 2 merlin databases (one in each sites), totally distinct, but I think it's not a good thing to have, because it will need two Ninjas too, so forgot about this last one :) Jean > > Greetings > /jörg > > > From: nap [mailto:napar...@gmail.com] > Sent: den 7 september 2011 08:39 > To: shinken-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [Shinken-devel] scenario help > > > On Wed, Sep 7, 2011 at 8:14 AM, Jörg Schulz <jorg.sch...@lnu.se> wrote: > Hi > > Try to implement shinken in our enviroment , we have physical 2 sites , on > each site we have our own nagios server , the servers checks the their own > site. > Now we have to connect with each other.
