[smokeping-users] Smokeping Master/Slave

[Shawn Rose]

Hello,

I'm attempting to get Master/Slave working using the latest version
2.003002, debian package.

I have simplified my config to avoid confusion. I took out the domain
and nameserver info as it is not important, and is correct. Here is
what I have configured.

Both the master and slave start without error. If I don't set
masterpoll, the master probes no problem. I should also mention both
machines are identical ( virtual machines )

I have my slave and master to debug. And I can see that the slave gets
it config, and in debug mode you can see the pings happening. (I have
included a snippet of the log at
the bottom). Also I can see the packets flow, between the two systems
using tcpdump

The master, appears not to be picking up the slave data, even though
it is being sent to the master.

Below is my configuration.


On the master.

slaves = njsmoke


Under ***Targets*** declare my menu, and my probe

menu = DataCenters
title = Data Centers

               #
               ++ Nodes

               menu = Nodes
               title = Node Monitoring
                       #
                       +++ d0org

                       slaves = njsmoke
                       nomasterpoll = yes
                       probe = DNS
                       host = *nameserver*
                       lookup = www.pir.org
                       pings = 5
                       server = *nameserver*

                       +++ bull

                       slaves = njsmoke
                       nomasterpoll = yes
                       title = domain
                       menu = domain
                       host = domain.ca
