20. A health monitoring system, comprising:
-
a first monitoring unit comprising a first processor, the first processor comprising a first monitoring module configured to monitor health status indictors of a subject system, and a first metric module configured to generate a first metric of the first monitoring unit relative to the subject system, the first metric representing the suitability of the first monitoring unit to monitor the subject system; a second monitoring unit comprising a second processor, the second processor comprising a second monitoring module configured to monitor the health status indictors upon receipt of a transfer signal, and a second metric module configured to generate a second metric of the second monitoring unit relative to the subject system indicating the suitability of the second monitoring unit to monitor the subject system; a transfer module configured to evaluate the first and second metrics and to generate the transfer signal; and a packaging module configured to package historical health status indicator data and supply the historical health status indicator data to the second monitoring unit upon receipt of the transfer signal.
