Description-en: Parallel versions of SSH-based tools
pssh provides a number of commands for executing against a group of computers,
using SSH. It's most useful for operating on clusters of
homogenously-configured hosts.
.
The package contains:
.
- Parallel ssh (parallel-ssh, upstream calls it pssh), executes commands on
multiple hosts in parallel
- Parallel scp (parallel-scp, upstream calls it pscp), copies files to
multiple remote hosts in parallel
- Parallel rsync (parallel-rsync, upstream calls it prsync), efficiently
copies files to multiple hosts in parallel
- Parallel nuke (parallel-nuke, upstream calls it pnuke), kills processes on
multiple remote hosts in parallel
- Parallel slurp (parallel-slurp, upstream calls it pslurp), copies files
from multiple remote hosts to a central host in parallel
.
These tools are good for controlling large collections of nodes, where faster
alternatives such as gexec and pcp are not available.
