On the other hand this would mean that we have to monitor another "host" and also plan for downtimes of this host, too. An approach where I just define the redundant hosts and get the report that I need would in my opinion be the better one. The data is all there, it just has to be evaluated. I really can't believe, that I'm the only one with this problem?
