[Icecast] relay backup file

[Michel van Dop]

Hi,

I have install 2 Icecast servers.
We not using master relay. But we use specific mountrelay for fallback:
server1 - pc1 encoder over dsl
server2 - pc2 encoder over cable internet

We use the same mountpoints on both icecast servers and use the failback
to a relay mountpoint from the other server.
Works fine when we shutdown pc1 or pc2 there is on both icecast server
music.

We like to have a second option when both pc encoders are offline we
like to hear a file. How to use in the relay the fallback option?

So this is the config on both server:
mount /main, when down go to /fallback on the relay mountpoint from the
other server.
When /main and fallback (relay) is down we like to hear a /file.mp3

Best regards,
Michel

You can configure a <mount> block for the local mount of the relay. In
that block you can set up fallbacks as you like.

A relay is in no way special beside that the source client is not
running outside of Icecast but inside.
