[Nagios-users] TWO instances of Nagios on one server - possible?

2007-01-24 Thread Semir H.

Hi everyone,

Would it be possible to run two instances on Nagios on one machine?
The server would be Debian (with Apache).
I want one Nagios instance to monitor one lot of hosts and the other to
monitor a different lot of computers and they should be independent of each
other.
How would I go about doing this?
Simply installing Nagios in two different locations and making Apache server
each?

Thanks
Semir

I see no reason that wouldn't work.  If you're using NCSA you'd have to run
them on different ports, but other than that it should work.  Keep in mind
though that with user groups and hostgroups you can achieve the same effect
while still using only one instance of Nagios.

One location for Nagios is sufficient, but configuration and state files 
must be separate.

You'll probably need two different sets of CGIs, compiled with their 
respective paths. IIRC, there is an environment vraiable you can set to 
point the CGIs at their state file, but setting this in an apache CGI 
environment is not something I know how to do :-)

Also, one apache is enough, just set up two locations for Naegios.

Of course the machine you run all this on should offer enough 
performance - Nagios can use lots of power.
