[Xymon] Xymonproxy on HA setup

[Nico]

hi

we have also satellites in cluster in each country and they report through xymonproxy to a central cluster xymon.
The satellite acts as collector and report to the central. But they can be use isolated for a local view of the country.

For each satellite and for the central; the cluster solution uses Heartbeat and DRBD replication to have redundancy.

What is the purpose of checking xymonproxy. don t understand.

cheers
nico
