Re: sync between nagios live server and backupserver
There are many ways to go about setting up a high availability Nagios solution. We are currently working on testing and documenting a simple solution using DRBD and cron jobs. Other popular solutions include DRBD+Heartbeat, VMware's vMotion, and many others. Some distributed monitoring solutions also incorporate certain aspects of high availability solutions.
Unfortunately I can't help you with any specific setup instructions at this time, but we will have documents available soon that cover this sort of thing. If you figure out something that works for you, please consider sharing it on exchange.nagios.org, because this is something that gets asked a lot and everyone has different requirements for it. We cannot possibly come up with a supported solution that satisfies everyone, so any information you can contribute will make it easier on whoever comes after you.
