[smokeping-users] Re: Multiple instances with multiple configs

I put all my "hosts" into separate files, then reference them using
"@include" in my main config.

I end up with etc/config for the system-wide stuff, and
etc/config.clienta, etc/config.clientb, etc/config.clientc, all
referenced in /etc/config using "@include".

If I edit etc/clienta I then need to "touch etc/config" and
"bin/smokeping --reload" to have the changes recognized.

Subject: [smokeping-users] Multiple instances with multiple configs

Is there any negative impact to running multiple instances of smokeping
on different config files? I've found that having over 530 targets in
one config really bogs down when any changes are made to the config. So
I'm thinking of splitting it in to two or more configs and initiating
the smokeping daemon with --config=x.

Are there any pitfalls or caveats I should be aware of should I choose
to go this route?

TIA,

Eric Brander
