https://admin.stg.fedoraproject.org/nagios/ You can see that it can't reach/monitor a
lot of the things that the real instance does. The stg env just doesn't have access to
all the things it would need outside it.

How about devices? I am sure there are routers, switches, gateways, firewalls and maybe
storage hardware monitored by nagios that are high priority/highly critical and worthy of
test?
How deeply should testing go or, put another way, how much go-live risk can be tolerated?
Should a gap analysis of stage environment to production be performed prior to making a
nagios test plan? I am not sure how rigorously structured this upgrade plan should be!
