Global Operating System Commands

Global operating system commands are standard Linux commands that run on all or specified SGMs. When you run a global command in the gclish shell, the operating system runs a global script, which the standard Linux command on the SGMs. When you run a command in the Expert mode, it works as a standard linux command. To use the global command in the Expert mode, run the global command script version as shown in this table:

 gclish Command
Global Command  - Expert Mode
arp
g_arp
cat
g_cat
cp
g_cp
dmesg
g_dmesg
ethtool
g_ethtool
ls
g_ls
md5sum
g_md5sum
Mv
g_mv
Netstat
g_netstat
Reboot
g_reboot
tail
g_tail
tcpdump
g_tcpdump
ifconfig
asg_ifconfig
top
g_top

The parameters and options for the stand Linux command are available for the global command. In addition, you can use the -b parameter to select some or all SGMs for the global command.

Syntax

{<gclish_command> | <global_command>} [-b <sgm_ids>] <command_options>]

Parameter

Description

-b <sgm_ids>

Works with SGMs and/or Chassis as specified by <sgm_ids>.

The <sgm_ids> can be:

  • No <sgm_ids> specified or all shows all SGMs on the Active Chassis
  • One SGM
  • A comma-separated list of SGMs (1_1,1_4)
  • A range of SGMs (1_1-1_4)
  • One Chassis (Chassis1 or Chassis2)
  • The active Chassis (chassis_active)

Note: You can only select SGMs from one Chassis with this option.

<gclish_command>

In the gclish shell, enter the standard command

<global_command>

In the Expert mode, enter the global command as shown in the table

<command_options>

Enter the standard command options for the specified command.

One or more flags may be specified, however the –l and –r flags should not be specified together.

Global arp

This example shows the interfaces on all SGMs

192.0.2.2   ether   00:1C:7F:02:04:FE   C            Sync

Global ls

This example runs the ls command from the Expert mode on SGMs 1_1,1_2, and 1_3. The output shows the combined results for these SGMs.

# g_ls ls –b 1_1-1_3,2_1 /var/
-*- 4 blades: 1_01 1_02 1_03 -*-
CPbackup    ace    crash  lib   log   opt       run    suroot
CPsnapshot  cache  empty  lock  mail  preserve  spool  tmp
