Hi,
Im curious how you guys have achieved to setup Xymon for HA/redundancy - so that you can do maintenance etc. on 1 Xymon server, and still keep monitoring hosts with the other.
I've looked at the different approaches in the "Administration Guide", but they all have pros and cons and some are rather complex.
The goals I have: Being able to keep monitoring with 1 xymon server down - have all data etc. sync'ed between the 2 xymon servers, so I don't miss out on historic data - don't get double notifications/alerts - easy administration.
We currently have 4 data centres, spread around on different locations - one possibility would be to have 1 xymon server in each data centre, with the local hosts reporting in to that server, but how do I keep on monitoring those hosts, if the local xymon server crashes?
Hope you can answer some of my questions.
