NAME

       shinken-arbiter - Shinken arbiter daemon

SYNOPSIS

          shinken-arbiter   [-dr]   [-c  CONFIGFILE]  [--debugfile  DEBUGFILE]
          shinken-arbiter -v [-c CONFIGFILE]

DESCRIPTION

       Shinken arbiter daemon

       The shinken-arbiter daemon reads the  configuration,  divides  it  into
       parts (N schedulers = N parts), and distributes them to the appropriate
       Shinken  daemons.   Additionally,  it  manages  the  high  availability
       features:  if  a particular daemon dies, it re-routes the configuration
       managed by this failed  daemon to the configured  spare.   Finally,  it
       receives  input  from users (such as external commands from nagios.cmd)
       and routes them to the appropriate daemon. There can only be one active
       arbiter in the architecture.
