Would anyone be able to tell me how the Hot Standby feature works? I'm evaluating the Orion product and consider resiliency important. As I understand it, a Hot Standby client can take over polling if the primary (or any) poller fails, but what about alerts and traps FROM devices? Given routers are configured to send traps / logs to specific IP's, does that mean you set all of your devices to send traps / syslogs to all of your pollers? And if so, do these guys just discard the traps when they are not the primary poller or do they all write the traps to the database? Am I making any sense at all?
Cheers
