Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

I received a mail from nagios xi sales team with a response for this question : If I want to deploy a nagios xi cluster will I require 2 or 1 nagios license?

The answer was : "Each Nagios XI license key may be used on one (1) separate monitoring server that is
designated as a disaster recovery (DR) instance, as long as the following condition is met:
• The DR instance is in non-operational mode (e.g. it is not actively monitoring hosts
and services), except when it assumes operation when the primary monitoring server
fails."

Does this count as an HA server ? If not how can I deploy it?

Many Thanks,
Peter

For your reference, this question is best directed at Sales. I did ask them for clarification though, and they informed me that you will be fine under our standard license as long as your HA server is in a active / passive setup. An active / active setup will require an another license.

Does this answer your question?

Hello,

Apologies for the late reply, it does indeed. Thank you again for the answers you have given.

Best Regards,
Peter
