<ul>
<li><a
href="https://net-ssh.github.io/multi">net-ssh.github.io/multi</a>

</li>
</ul>
<h2>DESCRIPTION:</h2>
<p>
<a href="../classes/Net/SSH/Multi.html">Net::SSH::Multi</a> is a library
for controlling multiple <a href="../classes/Net/SSH.html">Net::SSH</a>
connections via a single interface. It exposes an API similar to that of
Net::SSH::Connection::Session and Net::SSH::Connection::Channel, making it
simpler to adapt programs designed for single connections to be used with
multiple connections.
</p>
<p>
This library is particularly useful for automating repetitive tasks that
must be performed on multiple machines. It executes the commands in
parallel, and allows commands to be executed on subsets of servers (defined
by groups).
</p>
<h2>FEATURES:</h2>
<ul>
<li>Easily manage multiple connections

</li>
<li>Open channels, spawn processes, etc. on multiple connections in parallel

</li>
<li>Transparently limit concurrent connections when dealing with large numbers
of servers (Net::SSH::Multi::Session#concurrent_connections)

</li>
<li>Specify a default gateway machine through which connections should be
tunneled, or even specify a different gateway machine for each server

</li>
</ul>
<h2>SYNOPSIS:</h2>
<p>
In a nutshell:
</p>
<pre>
  require 'net/ssh/multi'

  Net::SSH::Multi.start do |session|
    # access servers via a gateway
    session.via 'gateway', 'gateway-user'

    # define the servers we want to use
    session.use 'user1@host1'
    session.use 'user2@host2'

    # define servers in groups for more granular access
    session.group :app do
      session.use 'user@app1'
      session.use 'user@app2'
    end

    # execute commands on all servers
    session.exec &quot;uptime&quot;

    # execute commands on a subset of servers
    session.with(:app).exec &quot;hostname&quot;

    # run the aggregated event loop
    session.loop
  end
</pre>
<p>
See <a
href="../classes/Net/SSH/Multi/Session.html">Net::SSH::Multi::Session</a>
for more documentation.
</p>
