Hi guys.
Thanks for your inputs on the fetching/getting of a file from a dir! As Rick pointed out, the ultimate soln will be the use of gearman/rabbitMQ, or some other queueing process, with the clients popping the data off the queue..
I've got a different question/thought as well.
Assume I have a VM and i login, and start a process... I can watch (takes a long time).. and see if/when the process dies.. Fix it, restart, etc.. This is doable.. for one VM.. not an issue..
But, if I have 50-100!!
My thought is I can create a process/script (whatever) and do a rexec to each of the child clients, fire up the process and they should start to run.
However, I'd have no way of logging in to see what the process is actually doing. (I know. There should have been logging to appropriately capture all of this!!)
So, I thought, hey, use screen. Screen would allow the ability to rexec into screen, and via Screen, run the targetProcess.. Should work, yes/no?
-Although, I can't seem to find pointers on how to chain the rexec/Screen to work.
What I'd really like, would be a devOps soln (simple/quick/dirty) to allow me to be able to fire up a bunch of apps across a bunch of VMs, and to periodically have a way to generate a remote "screenshot" of the running process.
Thoughts/Comments??
Thanks for any pointers.
If I have a vm and I want to "check" on the
