Subject: [9fans] auto reconnect for cpu servers
Date: Tue, 12 May 2009 19:43:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <586aa74459bb99e8a715bc932a79b789@quintile.net> (raw)
Is there a technique or program that can be used on a diskless
cpu server to make it auto-reconnect when the file server reboots?
I remember reading about the Challange file servers at the labs,
in which (I believe) the cyclone driver would write reboot to
/dev/reboot if the connection dropped.
Is there somthing similar I could do elegantly with a tcp/ip
connection? I could just do a readdir(2) of / every 10 secs and
reboot if that fails but I assume somthing already exists.
