<b>Subject:</b> [hobbit] TS - Is there a setup for an HA pair of servers<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
</div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is there documentation for setting up a High Availability
(HA) pair of servers for xymon?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have a Dell R-series server (new) and a Dell 1850 server
that I can use.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have created a SCRIPT and RSYNC between the two servers
that the 1850 watches the R-series.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If the R-series fails to answer, the 1850 will then get the
files from the RSYNC directory (edit a few items), install the
hobbit-alerts.cfg file and take over the primary responsibilities of alerting.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Both systems currently have to watch over all devices – not
efficient.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I copy over the files from each server every hour – thus
also having a backup of each servers special files.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>HA is the appropriate solution, is it possible? Is
there a write-up on how to set it up?<o:p></o:p></p>
