Update or copy files from one server to multiple destinations (servers)

[Diffman]

We use BeyondCompare to push files from one server to multiple servers. Is it possible to do this in one session by specifying multiple destinations? Right now, we have to create a session for each destination server. This is a huge problem when we have 50+ servers.

Hello,

We have a Copy To command that can point to any third location and copy a selection of files. We also have script which can load and perform commands sequentially, so you can load a folder pair or session, perform a sync or copy, and then load another pair. Would either of these methods help you?

Unfortunately, we do not have a way to compare a single folder to multiple folders at once.

What problem are you running into with 50+ sessions? Managing them? Loading them? Running them sequentially or concurrently?

What problem are you running into with 50+ sessions? Managing them? Loading them? Running them sequentially or concurrently?

My thought would be "50 times the mouse clicks, and what if I miss one?"

Your script suggestion should take care of both issues, though.

One other method: If you put all 50 sessions in a folder, or 5 folders of 10 each, you can right click the folder and launch all of the sessions within that folder with one click.

That's an interesting suggestion!
