Hi All, I have 20 node cluster of machines on which i am running RHEL5.4. I need to set some settings and variables on all the nodes. For this purpose i have one machine which acts like a server & send Perl script to all other machine and than execute that script. My problem is I am able to send the script using File::Remote copy function, but still the execution and taking back the result is problem. I have tried executing the script using IPC::PerlSSH module but that is also failing. Please help me if there is any better way or module so that I can send my script to all the nodes and execute. Thanks in advance.. UPDATE A lot of thanks to all of you for giving me so many useful options. But I have few constraints: -> There should not be any installation( Even any perl Module) or settings that I have to do on my remote machines. -> Now i have 20 machines but they can be 1000 also, so I need a solution which doesn't have problem with heavy loads. -> On my Server machine I can do all the stuffs, so I need a solution which doesn't require any extra efforts on my remote nodes.
