    Clarification on Distributed Monitoring

    I'm a little confused by DM. Thanks to the 1.8 docs I got it configured without any problems. But the section regarding proxy vs node was a little too terse.

    It appears to me that in DM Master-Child mode you essentially just have a single web interface to control all the servers. It seems like I'm forced to switch back and forth between nodes frequently to do configuration, rather than doing it from a single place.

    Is this the way it should work or am I missing something? Everything looks fine in the GUI, however I don't see anything showing up in the logs to suggest there is anything happening by way of sync'ing between nodes.

    Proxy would appear to be more straight forward and seems to be the dominant preference, but I do worry about lag between Asia, West Coast, East Coast, and Europe, which makes me think DM Nodes is a better deployment choice.

    Thanks!
