Newbie question

[Hippo]

Hi,

Apologies in advance for the newbie question.

Having tried the Nagios core, this looks exactly the type of system that is required for the working environment we have.

However, here comes the newbie question, ideally I would like to have a single Nagios resilient platform BUT for it serve two sides of the new business - one side being the servers/network within our data centres and the other side being solely for our customer support team who could then have hundreds of customers. So its a multi-tenant and multi-tiered requirement.

I am wondering if I can run this type of environment from a cluster of two or more Nagios servers but for the two groups to be separate?

Apologies again for the newbie question

I would set up one XI server for your business, and another for anything customer-facing, then if needed you can tie them together into one view with Fusion:

If you are asking about high-availability/failover clustering, that is not currently built in to XI, but can be done in various ways at the OS/hypervisor level.

That's great, thanks for the advice,

I had thought this approach would be the most sensible method but not sure how they would be linked.

Take it I can have hundreds of customers within the Customer system - I need them to independent of each other - kind of Organisation-> Customer(s) -> Site(s)

Thanks again

Nagios XI is multi tenant capable providing separation, it comes down the to contacts being assigned to objects providing that capability.

Here are some documents that explain it:
