I'm working on industrial plc's sometimes we implement watchdog functions in critical programs thus toggling a bit every 2 seconds or such, then we know that the other machine/program/thing/whatever is dead .
Idea, note i don't know perl or lua (I'll run and hide somewhere..): A lua script that exchange toggle bits with a perlscript on the mysbs server on all squeezeplay based players a time out of for example 10 minute will be ok if mysbs.com fails to respond, switch data center. On the sbs a perls script exchanging watch dog bits with a perls script on mysbs, change center if it fails to respond here to. No idea wich part that should tell the poor old/dum/stupid/slim ip3k based players where mysbs is now but there probably is a solution to that to :) time out can be 10 minutes or so, to not load load mysbs server to heavy, nothing is going to catch fire so ultra fast watchdog is not needed. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: SB3 (soon to replaced by a Touch :) It is on preorder) Bedroom/Office: Boom Kitchen: Receiver (soon to be replaced by my SB3 and the SBRto be stuffed in a box in the attic ) I use a Controller various ir-remotes and a Eee-PC with squeezeplay to controll this ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72172 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezenetwork
