Question About Awesome and Slave Windows

view story
linux-howto

https://bbs.archlinux.org – I like Awesome, but one thing has always bugged me to the point that I can no longer use it: putting new windows as slaves. I have uncommented the line for it at the bottom of rc.lua (awful.client.setslave(c)) and it works, except instead of simply making new windows slaves, it puts a new window as a master and then moves it really quickly into the slave position. This all happens immediately, but it causes an annoying flash that I just can't get over. Is there any way to fix this? bslackr https://bbs.archlinux.org/profile.php?id=56505 2012-08-28T10:07:00Z (HowTos)

That's the one I am using, it works when the output_to_x is enabled, but when that is disabled it doesn't.

I have the following setup:

M1 = Master 1 S1 = Slave 1 S2 = Slave 2 S3 = Slave 3

Where all slaves are replicating directly from M1. I would like to move S2 and S3 to be slaves of S1.

I'm not sure about how to do it without any downtime and with replication picking up where it left off.

Just tried it, and it didn't work Traceback (most recent call last): File "./serman", line 161, in <module> main() File "./serman", line 86, in main newly_enabled = checked - enabled UnboundLocalError: local variable 'enabled' referenced before assignment

Move MySQL master 34 weeks 1 day ago

I currently have a master db server (lets call it db1) and 6 slaves (slave1-6). I've setup a new server (db2) as a slave of db1 and it's in sync.

Use code blocks.  I am not an awesome user... I am rather lame actually.... so I cannot help you I don't think.This may be off putting to some though:I use Windows 95....err, I mean Arch with Awesome WM with urxvt.

"instance" doesn't mean what you think it does: http://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/FAQ#Ho … tifiers.3FThere is no clean way (in general) to get the process responsible for a window due to the way Xorg works (you can have multiple windows from multiple computers).

Maybe it is a timing issue. Can you have awesome run wmname and syndaemon? It is able to run apps when it starts.https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Aw … n_programshttps://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/Autostart

Is this possible without having to dump to all other slaves at the same time?

Basically I would create a blank database with the 'create database' function on the master and slave. Then I would setup the replication of the DB. I would then do a dump on the master.. would all the inserts during the dump be replicated to the slave?

TIA!

edit: sorry i didn't mean mysqldump..
