Adding a Network Shell script

You can create Network Shell scripts and store them in the Depot. After you add a Network Shell script to the Depot, you can run the script using a Network Shell Script Job.

Note

Avoid dumping raw information in NSH Scripts as a method of data consolidation. Instead, author your script in a separate file, and copy that file to the central location.
Be careful of running expensive or high CPU commands in parallel. Instead of running many parallel CLI commands, collect information on the edge nodes and then use a separate loop or process to load them sequentially.

To add a Network Shell script to the Depot

Take one of the following actions:
- Right-click a depot folder and select New > NSH Script from the pop-up menu.
- Open the Servers folder and navigate to a file that you want to add to the Depot as a Network Shell script. Right-click the file and select Add to Depot As > NSH Script.
- The Add NSH Script to Depot wizard opens.
Using the wizard, define the script, as described in the following sections:
Click Finish to close the wizard and save your changes.
For information about creating a job that runs the script you have added, see Creating Network Shell Script Jobs.
