Did your previous thread not meet what you are looking for? If not please be more specific on what you are intending to achieve by clustering servers?

You can change the location, but it is not officially supported.

You have a couple options:
1. symlink /usr/local/nagios and /usr/local/nagiosxi. Still not officially supported, but others have had success with this method.
2. you could mount the nagios and nagiosxi folders from the san into /usr/local. You must make sure that the mount points are up before nagios is started on system boot though. This is not officially supported as well.
