Gtacl dropping to service menu...

[red floyd]

[asking for a coworker]

I'm trying to launch a TACL macro through ssh from my PC, e.g.

ssh ***@system gtacl -c "\$VOL.SUBVOL.MACRO"

But when I do this, it drops to the service menu. I thought that
specifying a command would run the command instead of doing the service
menu.

1. Am I mistaken?
2. If I am mistaken, how do I achieve what I am attempting to do?

Thanks

Check your INITIAL-PROGRAM setting in SafeCom
-R

Try adding the "-T" option:

ssh -T ***@system gtacl -c "\$VOL.SUBVOL.MACRO"

What worked for me wound up being:

ssh -s ***@system tacl -c "\$VOL.SUBVOL.MACRO"

(invoking the tacl subsystem)

So TACL got sent to the initial SSH prompt? In Putty, you use the Remote Command to get past this in the Connection/SSH window. Is the -c required or ignored?

Not sure. That's what we came up with that worked. It's to do some
build stuff under a Jenkins CI/CD pipeline invoked from either a Windows
or Linux box (don't know which).

I believe that the "-T" option I recommended is the OpenSSL version of the Putty Remote Command option.

-T in OpenSSH says "don't allocate a pty"

You could use NSGit, you know :)
