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