we are doing the same thing

1 active 1 stand-by masters
6 active 6 stand-by slaves

slaves feed  alerts to master

some slaves act somewhat independently from the master, that is they
manage notifications/downtime

some are satellites and the master is used.

our slaves are primarily used to provide presence in our remote data
centres, but we also use them in our larger data centres where a
single nagios instance cannot process the required number of service
checks.
