Vim

[ Shell-Script-to-Monitor-Update-Remote-Server]
|- ssh.sh
|
|--[scripts directory]
    |
    |- u.sh
    | -monitor.sh

Executing the first script ssh.sh can control the other scripts. You should be at the Shell-Script-to-Monitor-Update-Remote-Server directory to run ssh.sh script. However, you can directly run monitor.sh and u.sh respectively for monitoring and update. You can also use unix pipe with monitor.sh, use cron from another server to send emails on change of certain parameter with cat, grep, cut etc basic unix tools.
The script is designed for username – password based login to SSH. If you use key based authentication configured by you, you can also use this script. For Amazon like servers, you need to open and edit the script for the SSH command.

In the case you want to run only the monitor.sh, you can use this command without the need to login to the remote server :

Vim
1
ssh username@ip_address 'export TERM=xterm && bash -s' < scripts/monitor.sh

You will get the result on desktop’s terminal.
