Description

One of the needs I've came across needs a different kind of SSH provider; One where I can statically set WHERE it SSH's to, and the search query/results become parameters to pass in the script to be ran.

A few of the situations I've ran into this are:
  • I need to SSH to my Backup server, and run a specific command to force a backup to start of a server. If I had the above provider, it'd just be a matter of searching for the hosts needed to force a backup against, use the "Static SSH Host" provider or whatever, and pass the search list to the command that gets executed on the static ssh'd host
  • I have a trusted host, and I need to push files from it to all the servers in my search parameter. This is the case in DMZ's, where they don't have access to PULL files, it has to be a Push from a specific host. SSH Static Host field is my specific host, search query is all the hosts that get passed to the command ran on the specific host.
