Hi List,
I am in charge for a big network infrastructure and at the moment we
evaluate solutions for our nagios monitoring with configuration via
monarch. I really would like to create the new solution with nagios and
puppet. There is only one big problem. In our infrastructure there are a
lot of switches connected together like this:
------------
| switch-1 |
------------
/ \
/ \
/ \
------------ ------------
| switch-2 |-----| switch-3 |
------------ ------------
| |
| |
------------ ------------
| switch-5 |-----| switch-4 |
------------ ------------
All the time I try to configure this switch connections in nagios with
more than one parent, where the hosts are at the same time parent and
child, I get the following error:
ERROR: The host 'switch-2' is part of a circular parent/child chain!
...
I know by now that this is because nagios has to be hierarchically, but
I do not understand why. Maybe somebody could tell me exactly why I
can’t configure this in nagios or better could tell me how I can do it.
I only found the explanation that this could conduct a deadlock. Maybe I
am wrong, but is this not a likely network infrastructure? At last it is
no problem to build something like this with STP running in your network.
Great Thanks in advanced
Lucy
