I've written a little python one-liner that basically calls showmount -a with an argv array at the end and my goal is to be able to feed it a list of hosts and get the showmount output for each host.
if I do: | showmount <hostname>
this works
if I do
host=pattern* | showmount host
nothing happens.
this is the extent of my oneliner:
subprocess.call(['showmount', '-a', sys.argv[1]])
What can I do to make this actually show me a list per host with each host being an event?
