[smokeping-users] Re: rsync

[Marc Powell]

I've been doing it for over a year with 4 data collectors rsyncing back
to a central host (monitoring a total of 2000+ devices). Just give
careful thought to your tree structure and you should be ok. Here's how
mine is set up --

+ tn
++ schools
+++ east (data collector 1)
+++ middle (data collector 2)
+++ west (data collector 3)
+ Corp (data collector 4)

The rsync command I use to send the rrd files back to the central host
is --

/usr/bin/rsync -avz --delete -W -e /usr/bin/ssh
/usr/local/smokeping/var/tn/schools/east
central-host:"/usr/local/smokeping/var/tn/schools"

Of course I have all the appropriate keys set up beforehand. You'll
still need to install rrdtool on your central host so that it can
generate the graphs, etc...

Hope that helps,

Marc
