Multi-Server-Terminal Access Tool

[Jan Fader]

Hi Folks,
I have to administrate a group of 20 AIX4.3.3.0 Workstation.
I need a tool who "spread" my commands which I type in one shell using
ssh to all the ppcs I want at the same time.
I know I can do this like

for i in 3 4 5 6
do
ssh ppc"$i" -T <command>
done

But with this solution I can't respond on a error on a single
workstation.
I have tried pconsole and clusterssh. Both doesn't work on my ppcs.
Any other suggestion? Tools,Skripts, whatever

With kindly regards and TIA
Jan Fader

for i in 3 4 5 6
do
if ! ssh ppc"$i" -T <command>
then
echo "Error running <command> on ppc${i}"
fi
done

Should work ok...

My error is not in the connection to the host. It's in the <command>

Shoudla-woulda-coulda. It actually returns the status of the
connection. As long as the remote command runs it will
return 0:

$ ssh hosta exit 0
dfreybu@hosta's password:
$ echo $#
0
$ ssh hosta exit 1
dfreybu@hosta's password:
$ echo $#
0
