I've got 2 copies of RWAN (latest version) for Solaris 8 running: Primary and DR.
Scenario:
I want the Primary to do all of the polling of the inventory and configurations, and back up it's database on a schedule. I also want the DR to have a current copy of the DB, but not to poll anything unless the Primary server fails.
I wrote scripts to copy the DB to the DR machine and restore it, which keeps the data synched, but unfortunately this also copies the 3 polling schedules and activates them.
Does anyone know of a way to update the polling configuration entries in the RME DB from the CLI?
Alternately, if there is a process startup option I can modify in dmgtd.conf that will stop the polling, but still allow me to view the inventory and configuration archives, that would work too.
I know one workaround would be to copy the DB to the DR and not use the "restorebackup.pl" command until the DR box is needed, but I'd prefer to make sure the DB import is successful before a Primary server failure.
These are the 3 schedules that I'm referring to:
1) RME->Administration->Configuration Managment->General Setup=>"Change Probe Setup"
2) RME->Administration->Inventory->Inventory Poller
3) RME->Administration->Inventory->Schedule Collection
Thanks,
Bill
