Power Unix fdisk -l Automation
Hello Folks - Need help really ASAP.

Iam trying to run this Shell command to get all the lists of partitions and disks from across all the servers.

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
_servers=""
_out="/tmp/output.$$"
_ssh=/usr/bin/ssh

>$_out
for s in $_servers
do
        $_ssh $s fdisk -l >> $_out
done

/sbin

also i was trying to do this in all the 262 servers that we have....so that i can get the list of all the disks and partitions and send these details in the output....i dont want to try and manually login to each server and type the command.
