Reverse Deployment Question

mcpalmer

I was wondering if anyone has tried this or thinks this can be performed using OD's Reverse Deployment...

I have an OD Admin/Base Server (Server A) that can deploy to an IIS Logfile Container Server (Server and a Prod Web Server (Server C).

I'm looking for a way to automatically have my log files moved from Server C to Server B. I know I can do a Reverse Deployment to have the logfiles moved from Server C to Server A, but was wondering if I can modify the Reverse Deployment to instead deploy the logfiles from Server C to Server B instead since the logfiles don't need to reside on my OD Admin Server?

Granted if you have all of the odbase, odnodes, and odrcvr xml files configured correctly and if the OD Admin server is "managing" the deployment, does this sound possible?

I have a lot of Production web servers that we already deploy to, and trying to find a method to move all of my logfiles to the Logfile Container Server.

Environment:
All Servers - Windows 2000
OD 6.0 for the Admin and Receiver Servers

thanks in advance

Server C cannot deploy to server B *unless* one or the other is a Base Server (receiver-to-receiver deployments are not possible)

Server A could pull from server C to a temporary location and then invoke a second deployment to deploy from the temporary location to server B (possibly with a nextDeployment - but certainly with DNR scripts - which you'd probably want to use to clean up the log files from both server C and A after having deployed them to server .
