Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi everyone

I intend to trigger a script from one machine say mc1 that actually excutes on different machine say mc2 and redirect the logs to that machine mc2.

I tried to use nohup <nfs location of machine >/script.sh > <nfs location of machine >/script.log 2>&1 &

nfs location of machine = /wlsuite/dir1/dir2 which is located on one machine (mc2)

And the location from where I 'm excuting the script is /wlsuite/dir1/dir3 on a diferent machine (mc1).

But after execution of the script when i give fuser /wlsuite/dir1/dir2/* from mc2 ,it doesnot show any any information on process being executed.

while on giving fuser /wlsuite/dir1/dir2/* from mc1 it shows the info which i dont want.i want the info to be available in the host machine itself and not in the location from where the script was triggered.

Can anyone help me out to figure a possible solution?

Better use ssh. Setup keys etc, execute the script from mc1 at mc2 like

Code:

mc1#     ssh mc2 "/path/to/your/script.sh >> /logs/script.out"

Code:

ssh remotehost 'commands to execute go here'

There are a number of possible twists but this should be enough to get you started. Search the forums if you get more trouble; there are plenty of threads on this topic.
