Information
You can enter the script command multiple times to run more than one script at the
same time; for example:
FTOS(conf)#script username root /usr/pkg/scripts/sample_scripts/
DisplayAlarms.py
FTOS(conf)#script username root /usr/pkg/bin/python /usr/pkg/scripts/VSNAgent/
Xen/hpAgtMain.py
When you run a script from the FTOS CLI with the script command, you can specify an
optional user name to apply the read-write privileges assigned to the user name when
the script is run (see Running a Script from the FTOS CLI). You configure the
username and password with the username command. If you do not specify a user name
with the script command, the script is run with the privileges of the current user.
For information on how to run a script directly from a UNIX shell, see Running a
Script from the UNIX Shell.
username name (Optional) Enter the user name whose read-write privileges will be
applied when the script is run. A username used to run scripts cannot
contain special characters.
script-name Enter the name of the script to run, including the directory path and
filename; for example:
Perl script: /usr/pkg/scripts/sample_scripts/cmd-server.pl
Python script: /usr/pkg/scripts/sample_scripts/DisplayAlarms.py
UNIX shell script: /usr/pkg/home/admin/test.sh
script-parameter (Optional) Enter the values of up to three parameters to be applied
when the script is run. Enter a blank space between parameter
values; for example:
script username admin /f10/flash/createVlans.py 1 2
