Cluster-Man!

> A gateway router has 3 routes to the internet, and does load-balancing and
> fail-over over all 3,
> at night I only want to have my support staff woken up when 2 or more of
> these routes are down.
>
> A http-load balancer load-balances the load over approx 8 web servers, and i
> only want to have beeper notification if more then 3 out of 8 servers are
> down.
>
> Is this at all possible in Nagios without writing my own plugins and putting
> this logic in the "check commmands" ?
