[Pgcluster-general] usefule rsync-wrapper

[Zoff]

Hi!

i found this useful when testing all components on the same machine with different user names:

!!! user at own risk !!!

but it works fine on my system (for 1.1 and for 1.3 versions)



what you have to do:

*) replace "node1" and "node1.com" with your hostname and full-hostname in the rsync_dummy script
*) also change in ALL your cluster.conf:

       <Rsync_Path> /usr/bin/rsync </Rsync_Path>
       <Rsync_Option> ssh -1 </Rsync_Option>

replace with:

       <Rsync_Path> /usr/bin/rsync_dummy </Rsync_Path>
       <Rsync_Option> ssh </Rsync_Option>




save this script as "/usr/bin/rsync_dummy"
