Server reporting to another server?

I have 2 hobbit servers, one for my test environment and one for Production.


These are running on RHEL3.

I need to get the production server to send updates for itself to the test
server.  That way we get an alert if the production system goes down.

Normally, I would set HOBBITSERVERS in /etc/default/hobbit-client, to point
to both, but the server-only  RPM does not have this file.

How do I get the serer to report to itself and to another hobbit server?

An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The first one orders a
beer. The second orders half a beer. The third, a quarter of a beer. The
bartender says "You're all idiots", and pours two beers.

I think you want to look at the hobbitclient.cfg in your 
HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/ directory.  In there you can specify multiple 
servers.  Look for the BBDISPLAYS variable.  HTH.
