How many hosts and services are you monitoring with Nagios?

Happily, I haven't had the [dis]pleasure of hitting that particular
scenario.

A more intelligent design would be to have physical server pairs,
as I really don't like the reliance on our VM infrastructure.
However, the ESX team has their own monitoring, and with the
stability they've shown (knock on wood, heh) it wasn't deemed
worth it to increase our physical host count for this purpose.

Soooooo close to getting rid of all of our physical boxes...
