Greetings!
I hope you can help me with this. This is for our marketing team. How do you get the webstats for a clustered server architecture?
It's like this, we have Apache running as front-end for Zope. These are identical servers being load balanced. I thought for the easiest way, multiply the stats of one server by the total number of servers since they are load balanced. I laughed, they didn't. I guess they didn't understand it. :)
Anyway, someone suggested using cluster trends. But that means opening an ftp port on every clustered server which means insecurity.
Is there another way? Has anyone created their own stats script for apache or similar webservers? Something like hitbox? We used webalizer before. But since the load balancing, I cannot accurately get the stats for the websites.
Cat the respective access_log files together and run webalizer against the resulting data? This assumes you mean there are multiple apache servers. If you are running ZEO behind a single apache, just the logs from the apache server will do. Bill PS, please don't X-post like that.
