Question

I’m trying to redirect content of a variable to a file through ssh. like:

ssh $MachineIP  echo $CM_Config > $mName/CM_CONFIG

where $CM_Config is a local variable in my host containing multiple line, and $mName/CM_CONFIG is located in $MachineIP
how should I redirect local variable to the remote file assuming my ssh configurations are correct.
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

In my case the problem solved with this command:

ssh $MachineIP " echo \"$CM_Config\" > \"$mName/CM_CONFIG\" "

In fact without \” enclosing my variable, my problem didn’t solved. Maybe it is because that the content of these variables are somehow like bash command and are in multiple lines.
