I'm looking for gotchas and best practices in implementing a failover repository for CVS. The idea would be to use rsync or something similar to copy the contents of a repository to a failover server with the cvspserver entry disabled in /etc/xinetd.d (RedHat 7.3 servers). In the case of failure of the primary server, the cvspserver entry would be enabled on the failover server to allow access to the copy of the repository. Obviously, this would not prevent local clients on the failover server from potentially modifying the copy but such changes would be overwritten on a subsequent rsync anyway.
Does this sound reasonable? Any potential problems? Mark Chojnacki [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
