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 AUTHOR
cmcp was developed by HP. SEE ALSO
