first time experience: collect on master node??



Hi all,

I've just started experimenting with cedar, and I have a few concerns
I'd like to share here.

1- What is the collect action used for on the master node? It's not very
clear in the documentation.

2- Also, i've received errors like this from subversion, and I'm abashed by
the lack of details:

2005-08-22T00:32:34 GMT --> [ERROR  ] Error executing backup: Error
[256] executing 'svnlook youngest' for repository [/export/svn/anarcat].

I've yet to reproduce the problem manually, and actually, the last
backup run went fine. Apart from that, I'm very impressed with the
software, it's a really nice piece of technology.

3- I've written internal documentation on how to install it, it might be
useful to other people, so I share it here:

Note the wishlist. :)

4- can I just skip the 'store' action on the master, if I don't have or
don't want to use a CDR? Hard drives are cheap anyways, and CDRs require
manual intervention....

A.
