Hi Brandon,
$cat fabfile.py
from fabric import task, Connection
@task
def check_kernel_version(c):
password = 'dac@123'
connect_kwargs = {'password': password}
connection = Connection(host="192.168.0.188", user="root",
connect_kwargs=connect_kwargs)
result = connection.run('uname -a')
$ fab check-kernel-version
Linux learnpython 3.10.0-1160.24.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Apr 8 19:51:47 UTC

Thanks Brandon for the email and it worked like a charm. I have one
more question, Can I have multiple fabfile.py files for executing multiple
tasks?
For example :- fabfile1.py , fabfile2.py, fabfile3.py ...... to
execute multiple tasks on multiple servers.
Please correct me. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Kaushal
