We currently have 7 geographic locations for our business. At our main facility (we'll call it Facility A), we have an Orion NPM server and a clustered SQL database. At another facility (we'll call it Facility 
, we have an Orion NPM server that writes to a local SQL express instance (on the same server as the Orion NPM install).
Currently, each Orion NPM server runs completely independent of the other. If I add a server/node on one NPM, I have to do the same to the other. Additionally, if I change the map, alerts, etc on one NPM server, I have to make the same changes on the other NPM server. The reason for both NPM servers is if we lose connectivity to Facility A (MPLS circuit goes down for whatever reason), we will still get alerts from our NPM server at Facility B.
My question is...is there a way to centralize the management so we only need to make changes to ONE Orion NPM server? The only option I can think of is to mirror the databases. However, that involves a significant cost since we would have to purchase a SQL Server license for Facility B (instead of using the free Express version).
Any suggestions, ideas, etc are welcomed. Thanks!
