Run one command on several servers

Check or fix the same thing on every server at once, instead of the same command typed in five tabs.

Run on many hosts in Termiyo types one command into every open session you pick and shows each server’s answer under its name, while the full output stays in each server’s tab. When a production server is selected and the command looks destructive, nothing runs until you type production. Use it to check or fix the same thing on several servers at once.

Open the servers you want, pick them in one list and type the command once. Each server’s answer comes back under its name. A server marked production is flagged in the list, and a risky command does not go anywhere until you type the word that says you mean it.

Recorded in Termiyo against three test servers on the recording machine, each answering as a demo machine written for the recording.

Steps

  1. Connect to the servers

    Connect to each server you want to reach. A connected server has a green dot beside its name in the menu.

  2. Pick them in one list

    In “All tools”, open “Run on many hosts”. Every open session is listed; press “Select all” or tick the ones you want. A server marked production carries a red “Production” label.

  3. Type the command once

    Type the command and press “Run on” with the count (or Ctrl+Enter). It is typed into each shell, exactly as you would have.

  4. Read each server’s answer

    What each shell printed comes back under the server’s name, and the full output stays in each server’s tab.

  5. Production asks first

    When a production server is selected and the command looks destructive — stopping a service, a recursive delete, a shutdown — Termiyo says what kind it is and keeps “Run on” off until you type production.

Good to know

  • The same production guard holds in a production server’s own terminal: a risky line asks for the server’s name before it runs.

Transcript

Check or fix the same thing on every server at once, instead of the same command typed in five tabs.

Connect to the servers you need, each one once.

Pick them in one list. A production server is marked before you type.

Type the command once, for every server.

Each server’s answer comes back under its name.

On production, a risky command waits until you type the word production.
