AdminCoPy Description

AdminCoPy is basically a wrapper for ssh and scp that allows a user to select, or manually enter, a group of hosts to connect to AdminCoPy software is basically a wrapper for ssh and scp that allows a user to select, or manually enter, a group of hosts to connect to. The user can run a command or copy some files/directories to multiple hosts by issuing a single command on the "admin" host. ACP (AdminCoPy) requiresthe fping program as it checks the specified hosts for connectivity and will only try to run the command/copy files to the hosts that are reachable.INSTALLATION:For systemwide installation, as root run the install.sh script in the distribution directory. This will install acp into /usr/loca/bin (or the directory you specifify) and install the man page as well. For local (non-root user) install, just copy the acp script to a directory you have access to and you're ready to go.CONFIGURATION:Edit the acp script and take a look at the CONFIGURATION section. You'll need to check/set the paths for fping and ssh/scp.You also need to define the group list and create the matching host arrays. The @group_names array should contain a list of host groups (dev, prod, corp, home, etc) and not specific hosts.Create the mathcing @{host_list} arrays that contain the hostnames in the specified group list. 1) edit acp 2) modify the "@group_names=();" array: @group_names=("list1","list2");The Group names are what will be displayed when the script is run and the user is presented with the names, so make them short but descriptive. 3) create matching host lists: @list1=("host1","host2",...,"hostX"); @list2=("111","222");USE:To copy a file or a directory to multiple machines: Usage: acp -c ex: acp -c buh.dat /home/html/To remotely run on multiple machines: Usage: acp -r ex: acp -r uptimeacp will prompt you for the hosts to use, there arepredefined groups, or you can enter your own.To view the lists of predefined hosts: Usage: acp -l
