Nagios Core splitting instances
Posted: Tue Jul 25, 2017 4:14 am
Hi,
I've currently got a large (7000 services) single instance of Nagios Core, version Version 3.2.3 running on CentOS 5.8, (yes i'm planning on updating both), and was wondering how to 'split' the Core in to multiple instances to help distribute the workload, and use a single front-end such as Nagios Fusion or Thruk to 'hold them together'.
I'm not sure what would be the best most scalable solution- to:
. Split the instances on a single virtual machine
. Split the instances over multiple different virtual machines
(opinions?)
I'm planning on organising the multiple Nagios Cores by the things in which they monitor (i.e. connectivity and telephony). Regardless, I'm still not sure how to go from 1 single Nagios Core to many (5/6). Has anyone got any ideas/suggestions/tutorials/documentation?
Thanks!
