Re: help in pexpect multiprocessing

I think the problem is that you cannot pass around an open socket via
pickle. Whats the error message you are getting?

Try adding the session establishment code to the stop function, so that
each new process opens a session to the server and executes the command.

def stop(ds):
        s = pxssh.pxssh()
​    ​
s.login ('host','username','password')
        s.sendline ('ps -ef|grep java')
        s.prompt(timeout=1)
        s.sendline ('cd /usr')
        if condition:
                lock = threading.Lock()
                lock.acquire()
                s.expect('Enter username:')
                s.sendline ('user')
                s.expect('Enter password:*')
                s.sendline('pass')
                lock.release()
        s.prompt(timeout=200)
        print('stopped ds...')


if condition == 'met':
       np = len(list1)
       p = multiprocessing.Pool(np)
       p.map(stop, [(ds) for ds in list1])
