Scripted synchronised backups..
2001-11-30 09:45:36
Hello TSM'ers,
This is one for you unix scripting people out there.
I am unable in our environment to test the kinds of commands needed to
achieve this, but we have a customer who wishes to perform backups on 5
machines, controlled from one machine.
So, a script would execute on one machine, remotely invoke a backup script
on each of the other machines and then wait untill those scripts have
finished before continuing.
My initial idea would be to use something like a series of rexecs placed
into the background, followed by a wait to wait for these scripts to return.
(pseudo-Ksh-code)
pre-backup stuff
rexec host backup.sc &
rexec host backup.sc &
etc..
wait
post backup stuff
Our customer though does not hjave rexec available, and woudl like to
perform somthing similar maybe using rsh ?
My scripting is Ok, but I have not done much with remote shells / commands
etc.. so I wouldnt know how they behaved without testing it out a few times
myself, which I can't do atthe moment.
Does anyone have any Ideas or do anything similar?
Thanks,
