I have a secondary server watching the primary. It has 1 think to do in hobbit-alerts.cfg, watch the primary. If the secondary looses contact with the primary it will run a script.
That script is to copy in the primaries hobbit-alerts.cfg file in place. It is put on the secondary automatically with rdist.
Also, in the primaries hobbit-alerts.cfg file, there is a watch that looks for a recovery, at which time, another script is run to reverse the process.
Pretty simple

Hi,
We have one xymon in our Head Office, and other one in branch office. In my Head office, we want to have 2 xymon to replicate result, if one failed, the other take place.
An employe have start something, but he left month ago. I see I the hobbit he did, this line in bb-hosts : summary Hobbit-PRD.All 172.30.1.1 http://hobbit/hobbit group servers 127.0.0.1 Hobbit-PRD # bbd http://Hobbit-PRD/
So the big question is, it is possible to do this ? Can we have to xymon than are in "cluster"
And if we want to get our branch office?
thx
David Raymond
