Hi waelkd,
Recently, I just set up an Icinga system for monitoring more than 100 servers.
Icgina and Nagios work in a similar way. Actually Icinga uses Nagios' plugins to do the monitoring stuff.
To setup Icinga or Nagios system for less than a handful of servers is pretty simple and straightforward, but to do the same for more than 100 servers is a little bit tricky and requires careful planning.
If you decide to migrate from Nagios to Icinga, I can share some experience with you.
