Use PSSH (Parallel Secure Shell) to connect to multiple hosts via SSH.
|
|
| [1] | Install PSSH. |

# install from EPEL [root@dlp ~]# dnf --enablerepo=epel -y install pssh

[alma@dlp ~]$
vi pssh_hosts.txt # write a host per line like follows alma@10.0.0.51 alma@10.0.0.52 pssh -h pssh_hosts.txt -i "uptime" [1] 19:37:59 [SUCCESS] alma@10.0.0.52 19:37:59 up 1:35, 0 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 [2] 19:37:59 [SUCCESS] alma@10.0.0.51 19:37:59 up 1:35, 0 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 |
