Opsview High-Availability (HA) provides a more resilient master server by allowing failover to a secondary node on the same site in the event of a hardware or software failure. The passive failover server assumes the full identity of the primary master server and including monitoring, alerting, reporting, and data aggregation responsibility.
The failover / switchover is an automatic, seamless process that ensures Opsview data collection continuity and is completely transparent to the end user.
Target Architecture: For users that cannot experience any downtime, Opsview HA provides automatic failover within a single datacenter.
