I have an idea on how to get a sort of distributed nagios to work. It actually seems simple. MaybeI am not seeing something. Maybe someone here knows a reason this will not work.
I have a nagios server here. It is watching some things in about a dozen data centers around the world. There is a nagios running in China and another one running in Ankara, as well. I want to see, in one interface, how all three of these nagios servers see things. I think I should be able to take the status.dat here, take the status.dat from Ankara (with a "_tr" added to the service names), take the status.dat from China (with a "_cn" added to the names of the services), and put these all three together into the one status.dat file here. I figure I have to do it in such a way that I do not get into a race condition with the nagios server itself, but other than that, what is the problem with this? I had asked for this kind of thing before. With our nagios server, we can see if the cn servers are up, but we care a lot more about whether the cn servers are up for the cn customers. It does not matter how the CN-US link is behaving. So, if the cn servers look to be down, but Ankara can see them, we know there is no problem. This just seems to be a really simple way to get this. But, given the complexities of some of discussions about this stuff, I am dubious. If it was this simple, it would be documented, and even talked about, no? I am sure I am not the only one who wants this. Any thoughts? thanx - ray ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
