Question about perfdata

Post by benhank »

we have two nagios production servers Nagprod1 and Nagprod2.
Nagprod1 is our production server and
Nagprod2 is or backup/failover server for Nagprod1.
We have configured each server to store its perfdata on a remote isilon san :
Nagprod1 ====> isilon/nagprod1
Nagprod2 ====> isilon/nagprod2

If Nagprod1 dies, will we be able to point Nagprod2 to the perfdata stored on
isilon/nagprod1 and have it pick up where the failed server left off?

Assuming you have all of your hosts/services set up exactly the same (which I assume is kinda the point), then this should work. You should definitely test this to make sure you don't have any typos in file paths and no permissions issues.

If something goes wrong, you can merge rrds with https://exchange.nagios.org//directory/ ... ol/details
