Certainly a surface/read error can cause unusual delays in getting the next
block of data leading to stuttering behavior as you describe. Good luck with
the other disk.

for the moment I am at the 'dodgy disk drive' solution.
I think the problem is a drive with some wear and tear after four years
of use.
I am going to take the main system off line tonight, run from the backup
and explore a few possibilities.

Are there file access notifications being used in Rivendell? Would the update
of the "last access time" on the file that you are copying from, cause
Rivendell to stop a thread of execution to see what was going on? I have not
looked at the source of any of the rivendell pieces in depth yet to

I just realized, that maybe I should keep it more simple: When the
radio-host starts voice-tracking, all the events/sound-files he need,
is already available to him, because the log was created the day
before. Therefore I only need to sync the /var/snd folder before the
radio-host starts voice-trac

I have a similar setup with a central server and two remotes running

Robert, I forgot to tell, that though the client machines are
connected through the open internet, they are connected to the local
network of the Rivendell server via VPN. So I thought that the clients
could be connected direct to the server MySQL without any problems?
It's only /var/snd that needs
Morten
It's easy enough to rsync the /var/snd from one RD system to another but
you also have to copy the MySQL database which contains all the data
other then audio.
If someone creates voice tracks on the remote system, you then need to
reverse the process and update the local system both /var/sn
Thanks for your suggestions.
I will try out GlusterFS or Csync. Someone wrote about Csync on this
list a couple of months ago, so it has been used with Rivendell. A
shame it isn't in the Centos repo.
Kind regards,

Hi,
I assume you've got both PCs hooked up to the same database? Otherwise
you would get all sorts of weird stuff going on.
Anyway heres the second problem you will have, rsync is only one way (it
gets really complicated if you're trying for a two way sync and has all
sorts of problems as you'

Have you considered a distributed filesystem that implements client-side
caching, or that just simply works better than NFS? (Not difficult to
beat NFS, mind you...)
I've never tried GlusterFS for Rivendell but it might work quite well.

When I discovered incomplete files on the client-pc, I was just
importing a file or two on the server via RDlibrary - nothing fancy
being done there. I guess I could add a sleep command to my script,
but eventually I would be unlucky that Rsync on the client would
conflict with some file operation
Practically, I don't think it makes sense to do this continuously. A sleep
between runs of at least 5 seconds, will unload your machine so that it can do
other things, otherwise it will be quite busy starting and stopping these
processes.
I'll let others talk about the specifics of Rivendell
Hi.
I've installed the Paravel Broadcast CD on a PC which operates as a
file-server and MySQL server for my Rivendell setup. I need two client
machines to be able to voice-track. Since they're far far away, I
thought of keeping a local backup of /var/snd on both client machines.
