[opensuse-factory] New Package for factory: nrun
Hi, i am about to create the submit request to factory for devel:languages:perl/nrun. nrun runs a single command or script on a multiple of target servers synchronously much like dsh or pdsh do but it is written in perl which makes it easier to extend for special remote access solutions. i originally wrote the tool for the solaris operating system but i think it may be useful on linux too. from the description: nrun will run a single command or script on a multiple of target servers synchronously. ncopy will copy a file or directory to multiple target servers. the underlying remote access mechanism is exchangeable. as of now, ssh, nsh, rsh and local execution modes are implemented. the return code and all command output will be logged. Comments, feedback and patches are very welcome. greetings, -timo -- Timo Benk Linux / Unix Consultant & Trainer Tel.: +49-178-8066638 Mail: benk@b1-systems.de B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstraße 7 / 85088 Vohburg / http://www.b1-systems.de GF: Ralph Dehner / Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt,HRB 3537 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

From the first read, sounds a bit like GNU Parallel. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

GNU parallel is new to me but it seems a very interesting tool. i will definitively have a closer look at it. as of what i have read so far parallel is more a general tool to execute jobs in parallel with the option to execute the commands remotely using ssh wheras nrun (and *dsh) is more specialized on remote command execution and keeping track of the exit codes of each execution and the command output. greetings, -timo -- Timo Benk Linux / Unix Consultant & Trainer Tel.: +49-178-8066638 Mail: benk@b1-systems.de B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstraße 7 / 85088 Vohburg / http://www.b1-systems.de GF: Ralph Dehner / Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt,HRB 3537 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
