Two active Nagios servers at the same time

Post by sizmek_il »

Hello,

We've installed an additional NagiosXI server which acts as a fail back server (In case the main server will fail),
We covered all the necessary logic to enable automatic back up and restore of the configuration so the fail back server is identical to the main one.

The question is whether we can keep both server active at the same time or should we stop Nagios services on the fail back server while its not active?


Thanks,
Alex.

This would be a better question for our Sales team who handles licensing, could you reach out to them and ask? They can be reached at [email protected]

Thanks, i'll contact sales.
And from a technical point of view, can it be an issue if both servers monitor the same machine?

Thanks!
