<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I will be setting up a Nagios server soon. Remote sites will generate and store performance data in rrd database.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I would like to replicate the rrd files on the remote sites with performance data to a directory on a central server. The central nagios server will use that data to generate graphs. Researching the list, I know one can pipe data from a remote server to central server. I was thinking of using cfengine or rsync to copy the files to the central server but I thought that there would be concurrency issues.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Does a facility exist within rrd that can synchronize/replicate a local copy of rrd files to a central server by establishing a checkpoint and sending updates to central server once the files have been synchronized?</FONT></P>
