xymond_distribute - xymond worker module for distributing commands
xymond_channel --channel=enadis xymond_distribute [options]
xymond_distribute is a worker module for xymond, and as such it is normally run
via the xymond_channel(8) program. It is used if you have multiple
Xymon servers running in a master/slave configuration. xymond_distribute runs
on the master server and receives "drop", "rename",
"enable" and "disable" messages from xymond.
xymond_distribute then forwards these to the other Xymon servers as standard
xymon messages. So if a user on the master Xymon server disables a red status,
xymond_distribute will forward this to the other Xymon servers so that the
change happens everywhere.
NOTE: xymond_distribute does not check to see if a message has
already been forwarded, so you can easily create forwarding loops.
- --peer=HOSTNAME
- The peer that messages are forwarded to. If you have multiple peers,
repeat this option.
- --debug
- Enable debugging output.
