Hello all, here is some news about the Master/Slave configuration.
In the first I have solved the MD5 Key problem. It was simple but non documented. On the master the file (usr/local/smokeping/etc/smokping_secrets) shall contain "hostname:choosenkey" and on the slave it shall contain only "choosenkey". So you have to omit "hostname:". Of course as mention before you have to use the hostname for the slave as return by the $hostname command. Now slave and master are able to communicate ;-) Probleme : I don’t have any data in my *.rrd files for the slave. In my case the rrd file has been created in “/usr/local/smokeping/var/xxx.rrd~supHQ” but no update happen from the (supHQ) slave. Using tcpdump on the slave, I can see communication between slave and master not nothing happen. In conf file I have : ##################### conf ##################### *** Slaves *** secrets=/usr/local/smokeping/etc/smokeping_secrets +supHQ display_name=Bulle_High location=Bulle_High color = 0000ff *** Targets *** slaves = supHQ … ##################### conf ##################### Furthermore if I try to specify slave using the slave directive on a host (commented line for now), I have an error when smokeping.cgi runs “ERROR: /usr/local/smokeping/etc/config, line 185: slave1 [slave2]”. +++++ Tcis menu = Tcis Server title = TCIS Server #slaves = supHQ host = tcis.trt.thales url = /tcis/PartSearch.htm I don’t understand why In a more general way I don’t want the master and the slave having the same host to poll (for example some host may be common and other not accessible from both slave and master). How do I fixe this ? At last, a simple question : is it possible to activate a “regular” smokeping on the slave with this server being reporting to a master (ie two smokeping instance running on the same server). Cheers to all, I love smokeping anyway, thanks Tobi.
