Re: Unexpected positional replacement strings substitution

Sorry for my lack of expressiveness.

Master
|-> target1
|-> target2
|-> target3
.
.
+-> targetN


I want to execute myscript.sh via ssh once on each target1~N servers.
But Master server lacks capacity to fork many ssh processes at the same time.

$ parallel ssh user@{} bash < /home/user/myscript.sh ::: target1 target2 ... targetN

So I want to distribute the load of forking ssh to several worker servers with -S option.
and myscript.sh should executed ONCE on each target1~N servers.
worker servers are just distributed gateway for executing myscript.sh via ssh on remote target servers.

Master
|-> worker1 ---> |
|-> worker2 ---> |  target1~N
|-> worker3 \/-> |
+-> workerN /\-> |

       distributed by parallel
   execute script once on each target1~N


$ parallel --basefile /home/user/myscript.sh --controlmaster -S worker1,worker2,...,workerN ssh user@{} bash < /home/user/myscript.sh  ::: target1 target2 ... targetN

I am sorry, but I do not understand the problem you are describing.

Does it have anything to do with ssh via a jumphost? Then this may be helpful:
