It's stored in memory and periodically written out the the retention file and status file based on your schedule or on shutdown. I haven't tried it but I'd suggest shutting down nagios on the master to ensure that the retention file is up-to-date, shut down the backup, rsync and restart both. The retention file is the one you want as the status file is recreated on startup based on config+retention.dat. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
