Hi All,

I'm in need of script which picks multiple files from one server and do sftp to multiple servers. Any help would be much appreciated.

This is a simple example example of putting a file with sftp, You can create a similar script to get file(s):

#!/usr/bin/ksh
# test_sftp.sh
sftp -b /dev/stdin -v -o BatchMode=yes -o IdentityFile=/export/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa -o Port=22 user@host <<ENDSFTP
cd /home/user/test
put /export/home/user/test/test.txt test.txt.xferring
rename test.txt.xferring test.txt
quit
ENDSFTP
rc=$?
if [[ $rc != 0 ]]    then
    print "Error occured...$rc" `date "+%Y-%m-%d-%H.%M.%S"`
else
 print "Successful transfer...$rc" `date "+%Y-%m-%d-%H.%M.%S"`
fi

raghunsi,
This is an outstanding example that uploads a file to a specific host. Do you know how to tweak it in order to do the same thing for multiple servers? (For example, with a while loop). Let us know if you need further help and we'll be more than glad to lend a hand.
