I would be interested in the scripts hat you are using for both of
theses actions.

Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Script to write maps to disk

We have a setup at our firm using two instances of Whatsup that are
syncronized with each other using a Perl script every few days.  There
is a Primary (called Data Center A) and a Secondary (called Data Center
B).  Both sites are hot and give us data on performance and availability
from these two geographically diverse Data Centers.

There are about 10-15 engineers who regularly add/remove/change
settings, alerts, services, etc. on the A site and these changes on all
maps get pushed to the B site.

However sometimes engineers can forget to "write map to disk" and if the
service on A fails for whatever reason, the changes are lost on maps not
synchronized to disk.

Does someone from Ipswitch have any thoughts on the proper way to run an
.asp script which iterates through the maps and writes each to disk.
This would essentially be run via cron once a night.  We could easily
code up such a page, but I am worred that there might be some corruption
if we tried doing all at once.  Should we introduce a Jscript wait
command between writes?  Are there any concerns with writing 30-40 maps
to disk with a script?

Thanks in advance for the insight.
