+Usage:
+
+ "${0}" start|stop PORT [EXPORTING_HOST EXPORTING_PORT]
+
+ PORT The port this script will listen
+ (configure netdata to use this as an external database)
+
+ EXPORTING_HOST The real host for the external database
+ EXPORTING_PORT The real port for the external database
+
+ This script can act as fallback database for netdata.
+ It will receive metrics from netdata, save them to
+ ${FILE}
+ and once netdata reconnects to the real external database,
+ this script will push all metrics collected to the real
+ external database too and wait for a failure to happen again.
+
+ Only one netdata can connect to this script at a time.
+ If you need fallback for multiple netdata, run this script
+ multiple times with different ports.
+
+ You can run me in the background with this:
+
+ screen -d -m "${0}" start PORT [EXPORTING_HOST EXPORTING_PORT]
+EOF
