Information

To run more than one script at the same time, use the script (run) command

multiple times; for example:

Dell(conf)#script username root /usr/pkg/scripts/

sample_scripts/

DisplayAlarms.py

Dell(conf)#script username root /usr/pkg/bin/python /usr/pkg/

When you run a script from the Dell Networking OS CLI with the script (run)

command, you can specify an optional user name to apply the read-write

privileges assigned to the user name when the script runs. To configure the

username and password, use the username command. If you do not specify a user

name with the script (run) command, the script runs with the privileges of the

current user.

For information about how to run a script directly from a UNIX shell, refer to

Running a Script from the UNIX Shell.

To stop a running script, use the no script script-name command
