Error while installing SW from remote server

[joseph51]

Hi all.
I am facing error when I tried to install the glance and MWA from the remote server .we have around 100 servers which I have to upgrade glance and MWA . So I issued the command from our home server using a small script . But its showing the error

the command I issued for 1 server to check is as follows

bimathe@s96admnxp01:/export/home/b/bimathe : for i in s96as717
> do
> root $i cp /var/opt/perf/parm /var/opt/parm.before_upgrade
> root $i cp /var/opt/perf/gkey /var/opt/gkey.before_upgrade
> root $i cp /var/opt/perf/mwakey /var/opt/mwakey.before_upgrade
> root $i swlist -l bundle | grep -i glance
> echo "Upgrading glance and MWA in $i ...."
> echo "++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++"
> root $i swinstall -s s96ign02:/ignite/hp_data/GlancePlus_Pak_C0500_1123 \*
> sleep 4
> root $i cp /var/opt/perf/parm /var/opt/parm.before_dbresize
> done

>root $i swinstall -s s96ign02:/ignite/hp_data/GlancePlus_Pak_C0500_1123 \*

I assume this is one of the remsh shortcuts and you'll need to quote that again:
