Hi, I'm thought at the Cluster for my PRTG monitor but I have some doubts about how the behavior PRTG when I start the failover node. for exemplo, my failover it is without any device regitered so when it into in the cluster what will it happen ? I have many devices with netflows I have to configuration that devices to forward netflows to my new node failover ?

thanks

Hello,

you need to move all devices from the Local Probe of the Master Node in your PRTG Cluster to the "Cluster Probe", then all these devices will be monitored by all nodes in your PRTG Cluster. Unfortunately, Netflow-Sensors cannot be used on the Cluster Probe. They need to stay on Remote Probes or the Local Probe of the Master node.

best regards.

You cannot run a Remote Probe on a PC/Server which also runs a Failover Node. The Failover Node has its own Local Probe which it needs to monitor. If a sensor is only down for one node in a PRTG Cluster it will go down in a "Partial Down"-State. State Triggers on condition DOWN will then not become active, but State Triggers on condition PARTIAL DOWN will.
