HA for Nagios XI Server

[MSPk]

Hi Team,

We have request from one of our clients to design a nagios solution with HA. Do we have any documentation which will detail on how we can replicate a live Nagios application and DB and bring the secondary system to life when the primary crashs? do we have any plugins currently which will help us acheive this?

We do not currently have a solid solution for XI servers on this point. The main reason is you can reliably replicate the mysql databases, but it is very hard to disconnect and transfer the postgreql databases. We do have a bit more detail on the nagios core side of things though:

This one may help too, it covers a few different ideas:
