carbon-relay.py to carbon-relay.py?

Asked by Jimmy

Is it possible to send carbon-relay data to another carbon-relay? For example if I put in relay-rules.conf on my first carbon-relay server

servers = carbon-relay.server2:2013

Is it suppose to work? I tried it and doesn't seem to work but not sure if it suppose to or not.

Thanks!

Yes this works but any time a carbon daemon sends metric data to another carbon daemon it does so using the pickle protocol, so you should point it at port 2014 not 2013.

Thanks chrismd, sending it to 2014 works.
