Does hobbit support fail over yet?  When I last looked at it the support was planned but not implemented.     

It's not there yet. Some of the stuff I've been working on lately
provides part of the solution for this, but it isn't complete.

Besides, "fail over" means lot of different things. For a true fail over
setup, you'll need some hardware support on top of Hobbit - providing
a virtual IP for your resilient hosts, and probably some sort of shared
storage. Most of that is handled outside Hobbit.

So what exactly do you have in mind ?

I would like to do like you can with BB..  The master and the backups will be on completely different networks.  Basically what I have is a collection of servers and devices to monitor in two different locations.  I want to have a main monitor server at location 1 monitoring devices at both locations.  I then want location 2 to take over if location 1 goes down.
