dcli commands in Oracle Exadata

DCLI  --- Distributed Command Line Interface/Interpreter (in Oracle Exadata)

DCLI, a Python script, to execute commands across multiple cells (Oracle Exadata Storage Servers) from one cell.

# dcli [Options] [Command]

Command - Can be cellcli command or Linux command

Options

Option	Use
-c CELLNAMES	Executes the commands only on those cells (Storage Servers).
-g GROUPFILE	Executes the command on the cells mentioned in the file.
-l USERNAME	The default user is celladmin; but we can use any other user to use for remote ssh execution. Make sure the user has ssh equivalency across all the cells where you run this command
-n	This shows an abbreviated output instead of a long output from each command execution
-r REGEXP	Suppresses the output that matches the regular expression
-t	Displays the target cells where the command will run
-x script_name	The script will be executed on the target cells
-k	Establishes the ssh user equivalency
-f FILENAE	Copies the files to the other cells but does not execute them. It's useful for copying files and executing them later.
-d DESTFILE	Destination directory or file
-s SSHOPTIONS	String of options passed through to ssh
--scp=SCPOPTIONS	String of options passed through to scp if different  from sshoptions
--serial	Serialize execution over the cells
--unkey	Drop keys from target cell's authorized_keys file
-v	Verbose, print extra messages to stdout
--vmstat=VMSTATOPS	vmstat command options
--version	Show dcli version number
-h, --help	Show help message
