Jonathan Felder commented on MH-8615:
-------------------------------------
We don't want to keep copies indefinitely, probably just for the semester. Of
course we have considered the ramifications of running out of diskspace for
recordings. The idea would be for the capture agents to have enough storage to
hold a semester's worth of recordings. Furthermore consider this is a managed
environment. Each capture agent will be monitored via snmp for load,
diskspace, etc. The capture agent would not be the primary storage location
for the recordings.
I feel as though you are attempting to frame the discussion such that our use
case is a terrible idea from an operational standpoint, when in fact it isn't
except for the fact that there are all of these status updates. In effect, the
capture agents represent "free" storage that serve as excellent secondary
backups.
As for the logs, yes I'm running on debug but that isn't issue either. The
logs I'm referring to are the apache logs on the server which are logging all
of the http requests, because apache is being used as a proxy for matterhorn.
While an annoyance, this is more to illustrate the shear number of requests
being made. As I mentioned in the ticket, these updates represent potentially
significant amounts of bandwidth with increasing numbers of agents and
recordings.
What effects will modifying the state polling interval have? For example if I
switch that to once an hour or once a day, I presume this will also cause the
server to not know what the capture agent is doing with an active recording,
right? Will this cause the server to indicate failure on the part of the
capture agent to initiate the recording? If that's the case, I would think
changing this would be a bad idea.
What effects will modifying the capabilities interval have? Does this also
affect whether or not the server thinks the agent is online or idle? If so,
then changing this is probably also not a good idea.
