Navdeep.D2 · 05-08-2017, 01:53 PM

Hello,
i am trying to make a zenity shell menu to manage 50+ servers and want to add multiple customized functions. e.g:- when server goes down i want to ssh in it, then check load,free -m, last 10 mins apache/nginx logs,exim logs,mysql slow query logs and many more. i have scripts for all these needs. But i am stuck here, please help.
# those servers have my ssh key so theres no problm in doing ssh.

i am successfully logging in servers, but the thing is when i get into server via ssh, the script ends and after i exit for server, i comes on my local machine's terminal with no script, then i have to again run script to get server menu.
Please tell me how can i stay in loop i mean how to stay in server menu , then ssh into any server, and when i exit from server come back to server menu.

please help . i want to customize it more.
