Description David Kutálek 2014-05-30 11:44:26 UTC

Description of problem:

As discussed in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=639938#c30 it would enhance user comfort to be able to release more hosts at once.
Typical use case would be issuing these two commands:

cssh -l root fqdn1 fqdn2 ... fqdn5
bkr system-release fqdn1 fqdn2 ... fqdn5

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

beaker-client-0.16.2-1.el6eng.noarch

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. bkr system-release a.b b.b c.b
2.
3.

Actual results:

$ bkr system-release a.b b.b c.b
Usage: bkr system-release [options] <fqdn>

bkr: error: Exactly one system fqdn must be given


Expected results:

All three hosts released.

As per the discussion in the other bug, this seems like a reasonable harness independent replacement for being able to issue a "return2beaker.sh" command across multiple hosts at once via ssh when using the reservesys task.

Comment 3 Dan Callaghan 2014-06-17 08:09:26 UTC

We can do this easily enough with a loop in the client command. It wouldn't be atomic or anything fancy though.
