Does anyone have guidelines
or suggestions on using RHQ on servers in both active-active or active-passive
configurations?
If monitoring physical
components, registering the agent on each server in the cluster with its
physical IP seems to make sense (although in an active-passive arrangement where
some filesystems are on a SAN, the filesystem may not be mounted on the passive
node).
If monitoring a logical
service, registering with the Service's IP may make sense. Does it matter that
the RHQ server may connect to an agent on one node and then later to another
node as the traffice is load balanced across an active-active
cluster?
