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

src_file

0 Successful completion.
1 Command failed.
