Lets say I have a setup where I have 12 web servers: web1 web2 web3...
And they all have a common homedir (SAN).
Hobbit is very good about naming most of its logfiles etc with the hostname in them, so thusfar I have not had a problem where a file or setting for one host caused problems on another host.
Now, what I am wondering is, if I use client-local.cfg on the hobbit server, and define some logfile checks. These checks get propagated to the clients. I know that I can specify hostnames in client-local.cfg, but what happens to the data when it is propagated to the clients? If it ends up in a generic named file on the client, then it will take effect for ALL of my clients, which would be bad (assuming I want to monitor different files on each of them).
I guess I should just stop speculating and try it :) But I figured I would ask to see if anyone else, or Henrik already knows how this works.
