Hi, We have several Solaris 10 running an application that generates large text logfiles
We need to stream these logfiles in realtime to a central monitoring server. Unfortunately (for both technical and non-technical reasons), we can't use an NFS-mount. At the moment, we're using SSH with tail -f to stream the files from the servers to the monitoring box. However, I was going to look at hacking a client/server up in Python to monitor for filesystem events, and then stream any updates. In terms of filesystem monitoring, this is Solaris 10, so there's not really that much available it seems. Gamin seems to be the best bet, otherwise I might have to fallback to polling. On the Twisted side, is the above something that's fairly easy to accomplish? I haven't used Twisted before, so I thought this might be a good excuse to learn it. Any thoughts or caveats I should be aware of? Any existing projects I might be able to leverage off? Good starting docs for this sort of thing? Thanks, Victor
