Hi all,

I have made a script which logins to remote servers and fetches some data from it.
Is is working perfectly when all servers are reachable
BUT
my problem is -- if in case a server is down (or not reachable), the script hangs.

Is there some way, that the script just continues to ssh another server when a particular server is not responding say for 30 sec.

I am using ssh to login into servers and have used ssh-keygen command to bypass passwords.

Pls help, just finalizing the script.

Thanks in adv.

Regards,
Vikas

Hello,

SSH client will disconnect automatically when remote box is down, you don't need any special logic. Can paste your script so that I can take a look at it
