I have a RHEL box (bash) and I have SSH'd to an ESXi (sh) from it.
Now on ESXi I have created a simple script
#!/bin/sh
echo hello
exit
This only exits the script. I want to exit the script + exit the ESXi shell and return to my original RHEL bash.
Thanks much.
If you are only SSHing in for the purpose of running this command, then instead you could just have the ssh run the command for you:
[RHEL]$ ssh user#ESXi '/tmp/myscript.sh'
...and if you needed to interact with the script, or watch it's output, add the -t switch:
[RHEL]$ ssh -t user#ESXi '/tmp/mysctipt.sh'
Remove the shebang ie do
echo hello && exit
save it as script and then source the script like
. script

I'm novice to running bash script. (you can suggest me, if title I've given is incorrect.)
I want to run a jar file using bash script in loop. Then it should write the output of jar command into some file.
Bash file datagenerate.sh
#!/bin/bash
echo Total iterations are 500
for i in {1..500}
do
the_output="$(java -jar data-generator.jar 10 1 mockData.csv data_200GB.csv)"
echo $the_output
echo Iteration $i processed
done
no_of_lines="$(wc -l data_200GB.csv)"
echo "${no_of_lines}"
I'm running above script using command nohup sh datagenerate.sh > datagenerate.log &. As I want to run this script in background, so that even I log out from ssh it should keep running & output should go into datagenerate.log.
But when I ran above command and hit enter or close the terminal it ends the process. Only Total iterations are 500 is getting logged into output file.
Let me know what I'm missing. I followed following two links to create above shell script: link-1 & link2.
nohup sh datagenerate.sh > datagenerate.log &
nohup should work this way without using screen program, but depending on your distro your sh shell might be linked to dash.
Just make your script executable:
chmod +x datagenerate.sh
and run your command like this:
nohup ./datagenerate.sh > datagenerate.log &
You should check this out:
https://linux.die.net/man/1/screen
With this programm you can close your shell while a command or script is still running. They will not be aborted and you can pick the session up again later.
I just started to learn shells scripting.
Trying to run script in cron, without success. In telnet when i run "sh.script.sh" output is as expected. What I miss?
script.sh is in /usr/bin folder.
#!/bin/sh
var1 = $(opkg update)
echo ${var1}
try simply this:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
var1=$(opkg update)
echo $var1
I'm trying to write a Bash script that logs into 2 different linux based power-strips (Ubiquiti Mpower Pros) and turns 2 different lights off (one on each strip). To do this I login to the 1st strip, change the appropriate file to 0 (thus turning off the light), and exit, repeating the same process on the next power-strip. However, after I exit the first SSH connection, the script stops working. Could someone please suggest a fix? My only idea would be to encase this script in a python program. Here's my code:
#!/bin/bash
ssh User#192.168.0.100
echo "0" > /proc/power/relay1
exit
# hits the enter key
cat <(echo "") | <command>
ssh User#192.168.0.103
echo "logged in"
echo "0" > /proc/power/relay1
exit
cat <(echo "") | <command>
ssh as an app BLOCKS while it's running, the echo and exit are executed by the local shell, not by the remote machine. so you are doing:
ssh to remote machine
exit remote shell
echo locally
exit locally
and boom, your script is dead. If that echo/exit is supposed to be run on the remote system, then you should be doing:
ssh user#host command
^^^^^---executed on the remote machine
e.g.
ssh foo#bar 'echo ... ; exit'
The commands you're apparently trying to run through ssh are actually being executed locally. You can just pass the command you want to run to ssh and it will do it (without needing an explicit exit)
ssh User#192.168.0.110 'echo "0" > /proc/power/relay1'
will do that, and similar for the other ssh command
I have a problem similiar to this one:
in my bash loop over a list of some servers, if the ssh connects the bash script exits
Unfortunately ssh is called from a perl script I can't edit (so I won't be able to add -n to ssh commad).
What else could be done?
put a fake ssh in your path that delegates the call to the real ssh and adds -n
I did:
my_script < /dev/null
and it works just fine.
I have roughly 12 computers that each have the same script on them. This script merely pings all the other machines, and prints out whether the machine is "reachable" or "unreachable". However, it is inefficient to login to each machine manually using ssh to execute this script.
Suppose I'm logged into node 1. Is there any way to for me to login to node 2-12 automatically using SSH, execute the ping script, pipe the results to a file, logout and proceed to the next machine? Some kind of bash shell script?
I'm afraid I'm at a loss here since I haven't had experience with shell-scripting before.
Since the script is on the other machines, you can just have ssh run the command for you there:
ssh $hostname my_script >> results_file
When you specify a command like that, it's executed instead of the login shell.
I'll leave it up to you to figure out how to loop over hostnames!
One trick you'll need to use is setting up pre-authorized keys for each host. Then you can run a script on one host, running something like 'ssh hostname command > log.hostname'
This script might be what you are looking for: It allows you to execute one command (which can be your script) on multiple remote machines via ssh. It's a simple script with bash source available, so you should be able to customize it to your needs:

Yes you can
You need actually 2 small scripts as following:
remote_ssh.sh ( which takes as first argument the name of the machine and the rest of the arguments are your script that you want to execute with his own arguments)
Example : remote_ssh.sh node5 "echo hello world"
remote_ssh.sh as following:
#!/bin/bash
ALL_ARG=$#
FST_ARG=$1
REST_ARG=${ALL_ARG##$FST_ARG}
echo "Executing REMOTE COMMAND ON $FST_ARG"
/usr/bin/ssh $FST_ARG bash execute_ssh_command.sh $FST_ARG pwd $REST_ARG
execute_ssh_command.sh as following :
#!/bin/bash
ALL_ARG=$#
FST_ARG=$1
DIR_ARG=$2
REM_ARG="$1 $2"
REST_ARG=${ALL_ARG##$REM_ARG}
cd $DIR_ARG
$REST_ARG
of course you have to get this 2 scripts in your path of all your nodes ( maybe ~/bin/ )
Hope that it's helpful
