write a script to install multiple depot with swinstall

[Mohammed Ali_6]

Hi, this is very basic. I need to install ssh.depot, sudo.depot, hpppi.depot and few more depot on multiple server. I am trying to run swinstall non-interactively to install all those depots. How do I write a little script to do that?

Thanks,
MSA

swinstall -s "sudo_depot_full_path" \* @ host1 host2 host3

Same for different depots.

cd /location_of_depots, then

for i in *.depot
do
swinstall -x patch_match_target=true -x autoreboot=true -s ${PWD}/$i
done

Oops, missed the mutiple server part. Add Anil's "@ host1 host2 host3" part to the swinstall command.

Of course - adding autoreboot=true will reboot the servers if the depot requires it - you may want to try autoreboot=false first - and check the logs later to ensure everything installed correctly.
