connect to server i.e out of Automic without agent installing

[Kiran Kumar Vasanthavada]

My requirement is to connect an server (i.e to both linux or windows) from Automic server, without installing agent in Automic. After connecting to server, have to execute a curl command and download a package to /temp  path and install it in same directory. No usage of Winscp.putty and sftp commands. connect using username and password with no hostkey inclusion.

Hi,

how would you achieve this without Automic at all? Which tools can you use to access a Windows and/or Unix/Linux computer to run curl, etc.?

regards
Peter

Hi Kiran

I don't see how this question is Automic related?

Ansible would have been a good choice, if you don't want to script everything on your own. However this will not comply with "no usage of winscp, putty and sftp commands" - good luck with that. I would discuss the requirements if I would be you.

Joel

Hi Joel Wiesman,

Sorry for the confusion. My exact requirement is if a server is launched from Virtualization i.e may be Linux or windows. Automic should get that status and execute a job. Job involving connecting to a launched server through ssh and execute curl command to download a particular package and install that package in /temp path.

Perhaps your base VM image should also have an Automic OS agent embedded within it with settings to connect to a Automic Server whenever it is launched. Then you can run jobs from Automic otherwise as others have already stated this is not an Automic related problem.
