STM version number (for example, A.57.00) - Appears when the xstm, mstm, or cstm program is executed. It also appears when monconfig is run.

thnks for all ur quick replies, running a script to gather STM version on nearly 70 servers, unable to push a cmd like this
ex:
mcheck -> no password is required,special user
earth -> a sever name

ssh mcheck@earth echo "selclass qualifier cpu;infolog"| /usr/sbin/cstm | grep -w Version
[or]
ssh check@earth echo "quit"|/usr/sbin/cstm|grep -w Version

both the command fails
... any thoughts

[Ivan Krastev]

Check is the command runs locally on one of the servers.

"both fails" ... this is very detailed information!


How about


ssh check@earth "/usr/bin/echo 'exit'|cstm"

[Torsten.]

or better

ssh check@earth "/usr/bin/echo 'exit'|/usr/sbin/cstm|/usr/bin/grep -i version"


Use all commands with full path if your user has no PATH set for them.

When we pass echo "quit"|/usr/sbin/cstm|grep -w Version
this works perfectly! gives version details alone, when run from another server
it breaks since echo "quit" makes cstm nt to run. Incase we remove echo "quit" and type
/usr/sbin/cstm|grep -w Version then it provides us the version number but waits/hangs so we need to press ^C to break also this break our script.
Ur suggestions are most welcome !

Right. Also for just one word "exit" it doesn't need to be quoted.
You can also use "\" to hide the inner quotes:
"/usr/bin/echo \"exit\" |/usr/sbin/cstm ...
