  • Gtacl dropping to service menu...

    From red floyd@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jul 13 10:28:14 2022
    [asking for a coworker]

    I'm trying to launch a TACL macro through ssh from my PC, e.g.

    ssh user@system gtacl -c "\$VOL.SUBVOL.MACRO"

    But when I do this, it drops to the service menu. I thought that
    specifying a command would run the command instead of doing the service
    menu.

    1. Am I mistaken?
    2. If I am mistaken, how do I achieve what I am attempting to do?

    Thanks

    Check your INITIAL-PROGRAM setting in SafeCom
    -R

    Try adding the "-T" option:

    ssh -T user@system gtacl -c "\$VOL.SUBVOL.MACRO"

    What worked for me wound up being:

    ssh -s user@system tacl -c "\$VOL.SUBVOL.MACRO"

    (invoking the tacl subsystem)

    So TACL got sent to the initial SSH prompt? In Putty, you use the Remote Command to get past this in the Connection/SSH window. Is the -c required or ignored?

    Not sure. That's what we came up with that worked. It's to do some
    build stuff under a Jenkins CI/CD pipeline invoked from either a Windows
    or Linux box (don't know which).

    -T in OpenSSH says "don't allocate a pty"

    You could use NSGit, you know :)
