Cronjob: Pull data from stats.vlabs.ac.in service and POST the usage

Cronjob: Pull data from stats.vlabs.ac.in service.

Analytics-service has to get/pull the data from "[email protected]:/var/www/html/analytics/output.txt" and put it in /root/nonopenedx-usage.txt.

Once analytics-service gets the data from stats.vlabs.ac.in, POST the collected data into analytics-service( i.e localhost ) .

Cronjob for pulling the data from stats.vlabs.ac.in

0 22 * * * rsync -avz [email protected]:/var/www/html/analytics/output.txt /root/nonopenedx-usage.txt

Cronjob for POST

0 23 * * * curl -X POST http://analytics.vlabs.ac.in/nonopenedx/add_usage

Cronjobs are set using the following command
crontab -e from the root account.

Modification in conjobs

0 */1 * * * rsync -avz [email protected]:/var/www/html/analytics/output.txt /root/nonopenedx-usage.txt
5 */1 * * * curl -X POST http://analytics.vlabs.ac.in/nonopenedx/add_usage

That means
Every one-hour rsync happens ( gets data)
Every one-hour and five minutes POST happens. ( Post data)

need change cronjobs again, since, in stats server rsync happens every 6 hours, so in analytics service we need to set cronjobs at least every 7 hous as @ksripathi said

[sivashankerN]

Checked cronjobs in stats server.

20 * * * * cd /root/analytics-erlang-program; erl -noshell -s analytics main -s init stop >>output.log 2>&1 </dev/null
40 * * * * cd /var/www/html/analytics/; python script.py

So, as we set cronjobs in analytics-service, that is ok.
