Xshell batch send command to multiple sessions

• Applicable scenario

Recently, there is a need to restart services in batches every week , Because there are more than a dozen server nodes involved , And we should distinguish between the primary node and the child node , You have to submit the restart command one by one every time （ To close the service, you need to execute the child nodes first , Then execute the master node ; Start the service and vice versa ）, Cumbersome and time-consuming . So I found out XShell Support [ Quick command ] perform [ To the current session ]、[ Current label group ]、[ All conversations ], Solve this problem efficiently .

• Solution

Found during use XShel5 and XShell6 There are slight differences in the version , We use XShell6 For example , The difference will be explained at the bottom ：

1、 First , Need to open XShell Of [ Quick command bar ]： see — Quick command — Quick command bar

2、 stay [ Quick command bar ] Add a quick command button ： Click on the bottom left corner — Quick command bar menu — Add a button , Or directly above [ Quick command bar ] Double click above

3、 Edit quick command button ： Fill in [ label ] And [ String ], The type of operation is [ Send string ], there [ label ] Command description ,[ String ] It's an order to execute , End of input [ String ] after , In order to click the button later, you can directly send commands and execute , Need to return （ Enter and execute directly ）

4、 After adding the quick command button , We copied several sessions for testing ： stay [ Quick command ] Button — Right click — perform — All conversations , You will find that all windows have executed this command ; Or perform - Current label group , Will execute the command to the current label group

5、 Here's the picture , The current tag group session has executed this command

6、 Corresponding to the session that needs to execute the command separately , You can drag the session tab to the bottom left , Break away from the current tag group , This can distinguish between session execution commands

7、 After leaving the current tag group , You can send commands separately without affecting each other
