Hello @MadeInGermany,

Apologies for not responding sooner to your helpful reply.

Here are some details of the Red Hat server I'm using:
Code:
$ uname -sr
Linux 3.10.0-1062.el7.x86_64

Code:
$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 4.2.46(2)-release (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu)

I'm trying my hand at this script again. I've used your suggestion:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
for server in server1 server2
do
  ssh -x "$server" '
    echo "hello I am on `hostname`"
    sudo yum update infolist
  ' 2> >(sed "1i\\
$server:" >&3)
done 3>stderr

I can successfully login to a server and I receive the echo that says "hello I am on 'hostname'" so the script is working and gives me this detail back. But I don't receive any other data back after running this script against my test server? Would this be the result if rpmdb open failed wasn't occuring on this test server? What I mean is...will the above script only show if rpmdb open failed exists and if it doesn't the script returns nothing back?

Thank you.

cdpr [-h] [-t seconds ] [-d device | -r pcap-file ] [-u server-config-file ] [-l location ] [-n hostname ] [-s server ] [-p script-path ] DESCRIPTION
