We don't have one specific way, every Nagios installation is like a snowflake customized to the organizations specifications.

Here is an outline of a few common configurations

thanks for the reply,

To configure any HA setup we need to know about the resources comes under the application.

As such, I would like to know, what are all the resources are there in NagioXI like (httpd, nagios).

This would help in configuring HA.

There are an ever changing list, and it is different of every installation because every time you add a plugin to you Nagios XI server you have the plugin itself and a list of any dependencies.

a portion of the required resources can be seen by running this command

Code: Select all

yum list installed
More here

Code: Select all

ls -al /usr/local/nagios/libexec/
Services:

Code: Select all

chkconfig|grep ":on"
But even this is not going to include all things downloaded and added to the system.
