I'm trying to use Fabric to deploy SLURM on new worker nodes.
As part of this process, I need to copy a file from the head node (with
fabfile) to the worker node. The file is owned by root locally.
I started out with
put('/etc/munge/munge.key', '/etc/munge/munge.key', use_sudo=True,
mirror_local_mode=True)
but I think I've just discovered that use_sudo=True is a reference to the
remote, not the local.
Then I found some discussion around
with settings(user='<username>'):
so I tried that wrapped around the put, with username=root, and this failed
when the login prompt asked for a non existent root password on the remote
server.
How can I run a local sudo user?
Am I asking too much - should I build it part by part? (ie, use local to cp
file to user's ~/tempfile.key, put file, adjust remote perms, use local to
remove temp file)
Cheers
