Run command on several terminals

Open exander77 opened this issue 2 years ago • 7 comments

Is there a way to run a terminal command on several terminals at once? Or use some standard utility which does that in conjunction with MeshCentral?

You could use the plugin scripttask https://github.com/ryanblenis/MeshCentral-ScriptTask or maybe look at something like Tactical RMM?

I believe @Ylianst is planning on integrating scripttask or building something in the future that will be do similar to it

this is already built into 1.0.85 but its experimental (it currently only runs and doesnt return anything)

  1. select computers with checkboxes
  2. select group action
  3. run commands
  4. select cmd or powershell
  5. select if admin(system) or the logged in user
  6. select a file stored in meshcentral or enter command
  7. click run

That's exactly what I need.

Can We expect some improvement to get result from each node?

If you have a feature request it would be worth opening one and ask specifically for what you want it to do, "an improvement" is all relative :).

yes @Ylianst said it was in the works but for the moment its only runs commands he is away at the moment, but the plan he said was to merge the scripttask plugin into MC

Do you have a timeline? Also, it would be great that if PC is not turned on, the command waits in a queue, and it will run as soon as PC is on.
