1. About User Commands

User commands allow users to execute arbitrary shell commands from within Zenoss. These commands can then be run manually against a single device or a group of devices. The user commands are executed on the Zenoss server, not on the remote device (unless the user command explicitly uses SSH to connect to the remote device.) User commands can be defined on any device class, system, group or location. They can also be defined globally from the Settings page under the Manage tab.
