bash script to ssh multiple servers in a Loop and

问题:

I have a text file in which I have a list of servers. I'm trying to read the server one by one from the file, SSH in the server and execute ls to see the directory contents. My loop runs just once when I run the SSH command, however, for SCP it runs for all servers in the text file and exits, I want the loop to run till the end of text file for SSH. Following is my bash script, how can I make it run for all the servers in the text file while doing SSH?

#!/bin/bash
while read line
do
    name=$line
    ssh abc_def@$line "hostname; ls;"
#   scp /home/zahaib/nodes/fpl_* abc_def@$line:/home/abc_def/
done < $1

I run the script as $ ./script.sh hostnames.txt

回答1:

The problem with this code is that ssh starts reading data from stdin, which you intended for read line. You can tell ssh to read from something else instead, like /dev/null, to avoid eating all the other hostnames.

#!/bin/bash
while read line
do
    ssh abc_def@"$line" "hostname; ls;" < /dev/null
done < "$1"

回答2:

A little more direct is to use the -n flag, which tells ssh not to read from standard input.

Change your loop to a for loop:

for server in $(cat hostnames.txt); do
    # do your stuff here
done

It's not parallel ssh but it works.

I open-sourced a command line tool called Overcast to make this sort of thing easier.

First you import your servers:

overcast import server.01 --ip=1.1.1.1 --ssh-key=/path/to/key
overcast import server.02 --ip=1.1.1.2 --ssh-key=/path/to/key

Once that's done you can run commands across them using wildcards, like so:

overcast run server.* hostname "ls -Al" ./scriptfile
overcast push server.* /home/zahaib/nodes/fpl_* /home/abc_def/
