cmcp

cmcp(1m)																  cmcp(1m)

NAME

       cmcp - Copy files between Serviceguard nodes

SYNOPSIS

       cmcp [-rv] [src_node:]src_file [...]  [dest_node:]dest_file

DESCRIPTION

       cmcp copies files and/or directories between Serviceguard nodes.

       cmcp  is  limited in several ways. cmcp is best suited for situations where other remote copy facilities are not available. For a more full
       featured tool for copying files between Serviceguard nodes, see ccp(1m) provided by Distributed Systems Administration Utilities.

       To use this command, the local user must have the root access role on each of the involved nodes.  For  more  information  on  Serviceguard
       access control policies, see the manual, Managing Serviceguard.

       Paths  may be relative to the current working directory or specified absolutely.  The current working directory on a remote node is assumed
       to be the same as the local node's directory.  Copies between two remote hosts are permitted.

       If a file or directory already exists on the destination node, the destination node's copy will be overwritten with no prompting.

       The cmcp command is not suited for large files or large numbers of files and may result in a heavy load on  the	command  and  Serviceguard
       daemons. Other tools such as ccp should be considered for these purposes.

   Options And Arguments
	      -r   Recursively copy entire directories.

	      -v   Verbose output will be displayed.

	      src_node
		   Serviceguard node to retrieve the file from. Defaults to the local node.

	      src_file
		   Path to source file on src_node.

	      dest_node
		   Serviceguard node to copy file to. Defaults to the local node.

	      dest_file
		   Path to copy src_file to on the dest_node.

RETURN VALUE

       cmcp returns the following values:

	       0   Successful completion.
	       1   Command failed.

EXAMPLES

       Copy the local file /etc/hosts to remote node node1

	      cmcp /etc/hosts node1:/etc/hosts

       Copy the remote file /etc/passwd on node1 locally

	      cmcp node1:/etc/passwd /tmp/passwd.poe

       Copy a local script directory to a remote node

	      cmcp -r /etc/cmcluster/scripts node1:/etc/cmcluster
