Designing distributed and failover architecture

[Shanti Katta]

Need suggestions on designing a distributed and failover Nagios monitoring
infrastructure for ~1500 Linux RHEL hosts spread across 2 datacenters and
DMZ networks.
Reading through different archives, it appears DNX is the most preferred
method for distribution/cluster setup and having a secondary Nagios server
as a fail over option managed via Linux HA/DRBD.
What are some of the cons in following setup:

- Primary and secondary(failover) Nagios servers managed by Linux
HA/DRBD/cron etc. Have MySQL replication between them.
- Primary Nagios server performing active checks via N DNX worker nodes in
both datacenters.
- Primary Nagios server monitoring DMZ hosts via NRPE (Custom regular
expression for services).

Thanks
