I think I should know this answer, but I do not.
I have a set of servers lets call them group a
I need to take a set of files from a directory on each host in group a and
send it to backup host b. backup host b is a cfservd server, group a is
a bunch of hosts running cfagent with no cfservd.
So the rule that I'm trying to create is something like
copy:
groupa::
/groupa/directory/$(host)-$(date)-file-*.txt
dest=/storage/groupa/tmp
server=backupserver
encrypt=true
What I believe this will do is try to copy from backupserver
/groupa/directory/$(host)-$(date)-file-*.txt to dest /storagea/group/tmp
on the cfagent clients which is the exact reverse of what I want to do.
Is there some means of doing what I'm trying to do, or am I violating one
of those obvious principles that for some reason doesn't seem obvious to
me.
Let me state that running cfservd isn't necessarily an option on group a.
Thanks,
Brian Seppanen
