[rrd-users] backup of the rrd file
--===============1152122157== Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=Apple-Mail-3--405598560 --Apple-Mail-3--405598560 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Hello, I'm running rrd on a Linksys router. Presently the rrd file resides on a flash partition. I want to move it to a ramdisk. And then copy it once a day via cron into the flash. What happens if there is a process just using the rrd file while the cron job wants to copy it? Does the linux filesystem takes care of this situation or does rrd keeps a lock when using the file and the copy is delayed until the lock is released? Can the rrd file become inconsistent? Maybe this is more a linux question than a rrd question. But I hope you can point me to the right direction.
