Hi there. I wonder if I could get your opinions on the following as a cheap HA solution - as opposed to a shared disk and some form of networked file system:
N.B. The terms "master" and "slave" are used with reference to HA. 1. The master rsyncs its /usr/local/nagios directory with the slave after every reload. 2. The slave runs as a MySQL replicating database. Simple, right ? This way both the filesystem and database stay in sync without having to share a disk. Problems I see: 1. Do the files under /usr/local/nagios only change during a reload of the master or do other processes - cron jobs perhaps - also affect these files ? If so then I guess we could just schedule an rsync of the directory every 5 mins between master and slave but this isn't ideal. Can anyone forsee other problems / solutions ? Thanks very much. _______________________________________________ Opsview-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.opsview.org/listinfo/opsview-users
