RTG Example Running rtgpoll:

The RTG poller, rtgpoll, normally runs quietly as a daemon, however it is often advisable to turn on one level of verbosity and log it to a file (we like to invoke rtgpoll as: "nohup ./rtgpoll -v -t targets.cfg > targets.out &". We then tail targets.out to continually keep a running eye on RTG. This example shows a properly running RTG poller with 1205 targets (it is achieving ~160 polls/sec).
