WWCTL(1)

📦 version 4.7.1, in opensuse-leap 16.0

💅 WWCTL(1) — like, the wwctl-ssh page, bestie

okay so this is WWCTL(1) from the manual, and specifically it's all about the wwctl-ssh of it all — yes the header says WWCTL(1) twice, she's consistent, we love that for her ✨

🦋 NAME

wwctl-ssh — SSH into configured nodes in parallel. literally that's the whole vibe, bestie 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS

wwctl ssh [OPTIONS] NODE_PATTERN COMMAND

💖 DESCRIPTION

Easily ssh into nodes in parallel to run non-interactive commands. no cap, that's the entire point of her existence 💅

So, about node patterns: they're a comma-separated list of individual patterns. each pattern can be either a full node name or a node range like node[01-03,05]. that's it, that's the whole grammar, slay 🎀

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -n, --dryrun[=false] — Show commands to run. like a little preview before the main character moment 👀
  • -f, --fanout=32 — How many connections to run in parallel. default is 32, she's popular 💅
  • -h, --help[=false] — help for ssh. the classic "what does anything do" button 🫶
  • --rsh="/usr/bin/ssh" — Path to use for RSH/SSH command. default lives at "/usr/bin/ssh", iconic ✨
  • -s, --sleep=0 — Seconds to sleep inbetween processes. default 0, no napping fr fr 😴

👑 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS

these bad girls come from the parent command, not from ssh itself — iykyk 🌈

  • -d, --debug[=false] — Run with debugging messages enabled. she's telling you everything 🗣️
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — Run with increased verbosity. more words, more lore 💜
  • --warewulfconf="" — Set the warewulf configuration file. default is empty string, "", literally nothing 🎀

ngl bestie, the manpage itself is auto generated by spf13/cobra, so don't come for her prose, she didn't write it, she was made this way 💀

anyway, that's the page!! Auto generated by spf13/cobra, dated Sep 2026, and that's the footer, folded up and tucked into this sign-off like a little bow 🎀🫶 bye bestie, go ssh into some nodes 💅✨
