fetch
This module works like 'copy', but in reverse. It is used for fetching files from remote machines and storing them locally in a file tree, organized by hostname.
| parameter | required | default | comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| src | yes | The file on the remote system to fetch. This needs to be a file, not a directory. Recursive fetching may be supported in a later release. | |
| dest | yes | A directory to save the file into. For example, if the 'dest' directory is '/foo', a src file named '/tmp/bar' on host 'host.example.com', would be saved into '/foo/host.example.com/tmp/bar' |
Example:
fetch src=/var/log/messages dest=/home/logtree
