SLB README
Copyright (C) 2011, 2012 Sergey Poznyakoff
See the end of file for copying conditions.
* Introduction
This file contains brief information about configuring and installing
SLB. It is *not* intended as a replacement for the documentation, and
is provided as a brief reference only. The complete documentation for
Mailfromd is available in doc/ subdirectory in both manpage and
texinfo formats. The latter is authoritative. To read it without
installing the package run `info -f doc/slb.info'. After the package
is installed the documentation can be accessed via `info slb'.
An online copy of the documentation in various formats is available
at http://slb.man.gnu.org.ua.
* Overview
SLB stands for "Simple Load Balancer". The utility monitors a
set of remote servers, obtaining a set of numeric values via SNMP.
These values are used to compute a single floating-point number,
called a "relative load" for that server. The servers are then sorted
in order of increasing loads and the resulting table is printed (using
a configurable format string) to a file or pipe.
* Prerequisites
This package requires Net-SNMP version 5.5 or newer (http://www.net-snmp.org).
* Installation
Configure and make:
./configure [OPTIONS]
make
make install
See the file INSTALL for the description of ./configure and its
generic options.
Options and variables, specific for SLB are:
--without-preprocessor disables the use of external preprocessor for
SLB configuration file.
By default, "m4 -s" is assumed. You can change this by setting the
environment variable DEFAULT_PREPROCESSOR to the desired preprocessor
name (with command line arguments).
* Bug reporting.
Send bug reports to <gray+slb@gnu.org.ua>.
