I'm trying to rsync a DIR from one Server to 100s of Servers using script (Bottom)
But, When i put single or double quotes around ${host} variable, Host names are not picked properly or not resolved.
Error is like below
server1.example.com
Host key verification failed.
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(600) [sender=3.0.6]
and when I run only with rync command like below, It works. But, Output doesn't contain hostname which is important for me to correlate the output with associated hostname.
hostname -f && rsync -arpn --stats /usr/xyz ${host}:/usr/java
Can you please review and suggest me how to make the script work even with quotes around Host variable. ?
So, that , Output will contain hostname and output of rsync together.
==============================================
#!/bin/bash
tmpdir=${TMPDIR:-/home/user}/output.$$
mkdir -p $tmpdir
count=0
while IFS= read -r host; do
ssh -n -o BatchMode=yes ${host} '\
hostname -f && \
rsync -arpn --stats /usr/xyz '${host}':/usr/java && \
ls -ltr /usr/xyz'
> ${tmpdir}/${host} 2>&1 &
count=`expr $count + 1`
done < /home/user/servers/non_java7_nodes.list
while [ $count -gt 0 ]; do
wait $pids
count=`expr $count - 1`
done
echo "Output for hosts are in $tmpdir"
exit 0
UPDATE:
Based on observation with (set -x), Host name is being resolved on remote (self) it self, it supposed to be resolved on initiating host. I think Once we know how to make host name resolved with in initiating host even when quotes are in place.
As far as I can tell, what you're looking for is something like:
#!/bin/bash
tmpdir=${TMPDIR:-/home/user}/output.$$
mkdir -p "$tmpdir"
host_for_pid=( )
while IFS= read -r host <&3; do
{
ssh -n -o BatchMode=yes "$host" 'hostname -f' && \
rsync -arpn --stats /usr/xyz "$host:/usr/java" && \
ssh -n -o BatchMode=yes "$host" 'ls -ltr /usr/java'
} </dev/null >"${tmpdir}/${host}" 2>&1 & pids[$!]=$host
done 3< /home/user/servers/non_java7_nodes.list
for pid in "${!host_for_pid[#]}"; do
if wait "$pid"; then
:
else
echo "ERROR: Process for host ${host_for_pid[$pid]} had exit status $?" >&2
fi
done
echo "Output for hosts are in $tmpdir"
Note that the rsync is no longer inside the ssh command, so it's run locally, not remotely.

I'm using a bash script which is run on serverA and connects to serverB to run a file.
The results are saved in a variable and then echo'd. However it doesn't echo all of the data.
The script on serverA is running:
count=$(sshpass -p password ssh -t -q user#serverB cd /home/tom && ./count.sh)
echo "Count: $count"
This echos: 341 not Count: 341
The count.sh script on serverB is looping through some folders and doing a count of files.
E.g.
total=0
count=$(ls -l | wc -l | xargs)
if [ "$count" > 0 ]; then
total=$(( total + count ))
fi
echo "$total"
How do I display the full echo on serverA?
You are attempting to run ./count.sh on the local machine, not the remote host. The && is a command separator that terminates the sshpass command. Use quotes to ensure your desired shell command is passed to the remote host.
count=$(sshpass -p password ssh -t -q user#serverB 'cd /home/tom && ./count.sh')
I don't see anyway of producing the reported output, unless count.sh can run locally but something (are you using set -e?) prevents the following echo from executing at all.
Im trying to check connections for a list of servers. I want to loop through the list, check if a connection works and if yes, do some stuff, if not, echo out a problem message.
My problem is:
the script stops at the first node without echoing the $?.
So, whats wrong with my for-loop?
These vars are included from a config file:
$nodes is a list of server IPs like 1.1.1.1,2.2.2.2,10.10.10.10
$user is one string
for node in $(echo $nodes | sed "s/,/ /g")
do
echo "Checking Node: $node"
ssh -q -o ConnectTimeout=3 $user#$node echo ok
echo $?
if [[ $? != 0 ]]
then
echo "Problem in logging into $node"
else
# do some stuff here
fi
done
EDIT #1:
for node in $(echo $nodes | sed "s/,/ /g")
do
echo "Checking Node: $node"
ssh -q -t -o ConnectTimeout=3 $user#$node "echo ok"
retcode=$?
echo $retcode
if [[ "$retcode" -ne 0 ]]
then
echo "Problem in logging into $node"
else
echo "OK"
fi
done
It is because ssh first asks you to validate The authority of the host and If you accept the authority it will ask for password. That is why your command does not return to shell and waits for input.
If your intention is just validating ssh connection, then you may consider to use
telnet <your_host> <port> < /dev/null
But if your intend is to run some commands you need a trust relationship between hosts. In that case you can use:
Execute this commands:
ssh-keygen -t rsa
then
ssh-copy-id -i root#ip_address
Now you can connect with
ssh <user>#<host>
Furher information
You can add -tto make virtual terminal and add quotes on command:
ssh -q -t -o ConnectTimeout=3 ${user}#${node} "echo ok"
Also use -ne instead of != which is for compare strings
if [[ "$?" -ne 0 ]]
Also echo $? mess the return code. You should use something like:
ssh -q -t -o ConnectTimeout=3 ${user}#${node} "echo ok"
retcode=$?
echo $retcode
if [[ "$retcode" -ne 0 ]]
You can rewrite ssh command like this to avoid problems with ssh host keys
ssh -q -t -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o ConnectTimeout=3 ${user}#${node} "echo ok"
#!/bin/bash
ip route add 10.105.8.100 via 192.168.1.100
date
cat /home/xxx/Documents/list.txt | while read output
do
ping="ping -c 3 -w 3 -q 'output'"
if $ping | grep -E "min/avg/max/mdev" > /dev/null; then
echo 'connection is ok'
else
echo "router $output is down"
then
cat /home/xxx/Documents/roots.txt | while read outputs
do
cd /home/xxx/Documents/routers
php rebootRouter.php "outputs" admin admin
done
fi
done
The other documents are:
lists.txt
10.105.8.100
roots.txt
192.168.1.100
when i run the script, the result is a reboot of the router am trying to ping. It doesn't ping.
Is there a problem with the bash script.??
If your files only contain a single line, there's no need for the while-loop, just use read:
read -r router_addr < /home/xxx/Documents/list.txt
# the grep is unnecessary, the return-code of the ping will be non-zero if the host is down
if ping -c 3 -w 3 -q "$router_addr" &> /dev/null; then
echo "connection to $router_addr is ok"
else
echo "router $router_addr is down"
read -r outputs < /home/xxx/Documents/roots.txt
cd /home/xxx/Documents/routers
php rebootRouter.php "$outputs" admin admin
fi
If your files contain multiple lines, you should redirect the file from the right-side of the while-loop:
while read -r output; do
...
done < /foo/bar/baz
Also make sure your files contain a newline at the end, or use the following pattern in your while-loops:
while read -r output || [[ -n $output ]]; do
...
done < /foo/bar/baz
where || [[ -n $output ]] is true even if the file doesn't end in a newline.
Note that the way you're checking for your routers status is somewhat brittle as even a single missed ping will force it to reboot (for example the checking computer returns from a sleep-state just as the script is running, the ping fails as the network is still down but the admin script succeeds as the network just comes up at that time).
Hi what is the best way to check to see if SSH fails for whatever reason?
Can I use a IF statement ( if it fails then do something)
I'm using the ssh command in a loop and passing my hosts names form a flat file.
so I do something like:
for i in `cat /tmp/hosts` ; do ssh $i 'hostname;sudo ethtool eth1'; done
I get sometime this error or I just cannot connect
ssh: host1 Temporary failure in name resolution
I want to skip the hosts that I cannot connect to is SSH fails. What is the best way to do this? Is there a runtime error I can trap to bypass the hosts that I cannot ssh into for whatever reason, perhaps ssh is not allowed or I do not have the right password ?
Thanking you in advance
Cheers
To check if there was a problem connecting and/or running the remote command:
if ! ssh host command
then
echo "SSH connection or remote command failed"
fi
To check if there was a problem connecting, regardless of success of the remote command (unless it happens to return status 255, which is rare):
if ssh host command; [ $? -eq 255 ]
then
echo "SSH connection failed"
fi
Applied to your example, this would be:
for i in `cat /tmp/hosts` ;
do
if ! ssh $i 'hostname;sudo ethtool eth1';
then
echo "Connection or remote command on $i failed";
fi
done
You can check the return value that ssh gives you as originally shown here:
How to create a bash script to check the SSH connection?
$ ssh -q user#downhost exit
$ echo $?
255
$ ssh -q user#uphost exit
$ echo $?
0
EDIT - I cheated and used nc
Something like this:
#!/bin/bash
ssh_port_is_open() { nc -z ${1:?hostname} 22 > /dev/null; }
for host in `cat /tmp/hosts` ; do
if ssh_port_is_open $host; then
ssh -o "BatchMode=yes" $i 'hostname; sudo ethtool eth1';
else
echo " $i Down"
fi
done
I have a file forwarding system where a bunch of files are downloaded to a directory, de-multiplexed and copied to individual machines.
The files are forwarded when they are received by the master server. And files normally arrive in bursts. (Auth by ssh keys)
This script creates the sftp session, and uses a pipe to watch the head of a fifo pipe.
HOST=$1
pipe=/tmp/pipes/${HOST%%.*}
ps aux | grep -v grep | grep sftp | grep "user#$HOST" > /dev/null
if [[ $? == 0 ]]; then
echo "FTP is Running on this Server"
exit
else
pid=`ps aux | grep -v grep | grep tail | tr -s ' ' | grep $pipe`
[[ $? == 0 ]] && kill -KILL `echo $pid | cut -f2 -d' '`
fi
if [[ ! -p $pipe ]]; then
mkfifo $pipe
fi
tail -n +1 -f $pipe | sftp -o 'ServerAliveInterval 60' user#$HOST > /dev/null &
echo cd /tmp/data >>$pipe #Sends Command to Host
echo "Started FTP to $HOST"
Update: I ended up changing the cleanup code to use "ps aux" to see if an ftp session is running, and subsequently if the tail -f is still running. Grep by user#host and the name of the pipe respectively. This is done when the script is called, and the script is called whenever I try to upload a file.
IE:
FILENAME=`basename $1`
function transfer {
echo cd /apps/data >> $2 # For Safety
echo put $1 .$FILENAME >> $2
echo rename .$FILENAME $FILENAME >> $2
echo chmod 0666 $FILENAME >> $2
}
./ftp.sh host
[ -p $pipedir/host ] && transfer $1 $pipedir/host
Files received on the master server are caught by Incron which writes a put command and the available file's location to the fifo pipe, to be sent by sftp (rename is also preformed).
My question is, is this safe? Could this crash on ftp errors/events. Not really worried about login errors.
The goal is to reduce the number of ftp logins. Single Session/Minute(or more) intervals.
And allow files to be forwarded as they're received. Dynamic Commands.
I'd prefer to use standard ubuntu libraries, if possible.
EDIT: After testing and working through some issues the server simply runs with
[[ -p $pipe ]] && echo FTP is Running on this Server
ln -s $pipe $lock &> /dev/null || (echo FTP is Running on this Server && exit)
[[ ! -p $pipe ]] && mkfifo $pipe
( tail -n +1 -F $pipe & echo $! > $pipe.pid ) | tee >
( sed "/tail:/ q" >/dev/null && kill $(cat $pipe.pid) |& rm -f $pipe >/dev/null; )
| sftp -i ~/.ssh/$HOST.rsa -oServerAliveInterval=60 user#$HOST &
rm -f $lock
Its rather simple but works nicely.
you might be intrested in setting up a more simpler(and robust) syncronization infrastructure:
if a given host is not connected when a file arrives...it never recieves it (if i understand correctly your code)
i would do something like
rsync -a -e ssh user#host:/apps/data pathToLocalDataStore
on the client machines either periodically or by event...rsync is intelligently syncronizes the files by their timestamp and size (-a contains -t)
the event would be some process termination like:
client does(configure private key usage in ~/.ssh/config for host):
#!/bin/bash
while :;do
ssh user#host /srv/bin/sleepListener 600
rsync -a -e ssh user#host:/apps/data pathToLocalDataStore
done
on the server
/srv/bin/sleepListener is a symbolic link to /bin/sleep
server after recieving new file:
killall sleepListener
note: every 10 minutes a full check is performed...if nodes go offline/online it doesn't matter...
