Thanks for the information, but that didn't answer all the questions. If in addition to having the files:
Code:
Dummytest_20140601W110515_file001.txt
Dummytest_20140601W110515_file002.txt
Dummytest_20140601W110515_file003.txt

in a directory, the same directory contains another set of files, perhaps something like:
Code:
Dummytest_20140603W214545_file001.txt
Dummytest_20140603W214545_file002.txt
Dummytest_20140603W214545_file004.txt
Dummytest_20140603W214545_file005.txt
Dummytest_20140603W214545_file006.txt

how will you tell your script which set to zip? Or will this never happen? If it could happen, should both sets be zipped.

Will there ever be any files in the directory containing these files with names ending with .txt that should not be zipped.

Will the zip file always be named APP_Deg_Dummy_dateTMtimestamp_File.zip? If not, how will the various parts of the name to be used for a given invocation be passed to your script?

       parallel-slurp - copy files from listed hosts

SYNOPSIS

       parallel-slurp [OPTIONS] -h hosts.txt -L destdir remote local

DESCRIPTION

       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.

       parallel-slurp gathers specified files from hosts you listed.

OPTIONS

       -r --recursive
	   recusively copy directories (OPTIONAL)

       -L --localdir
	   output directory for remote file copies

       -h --hosts
	   hosts file (each line "host[:port] [user]")

       -l --user
	   username (OPTIONAL)

       -p --par
	   max number of parallel threads (OPTIONAL)

       -o --outdir
	   output directory for stdout files (OPTIONAL)

       -e --errdir
	   output directory for stderr files (OPTIONAL)

       -t --timeout
	   timeout (secs) (-1 = no timeout) per host (OPTIONAL)

       -O --options
	   SSH options (OPTIONAL)

       -v --verbose
	   turn on warning and diagnostic messages (OPTIONAL)

EXAMPLE

       An example to copy /home/irb2/foo.txt from each host. Files gathered will be stored in /tmp/outdir/hostname/foo.txt.

	   # prallel-slurp -h hosts.txt -L /tmp/outdir -l irb2 
		    /home/irb2/foo.txt foo.txt

ENVIRONMENT

       All four programs take similar sets of options. All of these options can be set using the following environment variables:

       o   PSSH_HOSTS
       o   PSSH_USER
       o   PSSH_PAR
       o   PSSH_OUTDIR
