Python scripting in linux

We have around 250 identical linux server which runs a business critical web application for a bank. Basically we do a lot of scripting work but now i want to centralize that only in one location. That means run on one server and and deploy it in many. I know you guys must be thinking that this is an easy task and can be done with a shell script. But again we need to create many different different scripts to do our work

I know python has a big library and this can be possible but i dont know how. To cut in short i need all scripts in one file and based on the argument it will execute it according.

For example in a python program we have a function where we can mix them to perform different result.

So you please let me know how to go about it

You could also try any of the distributed computing packages. Pyro is one of them that might interest you.

This is a very general question, so I'll respond with two different frameworks that are made using Python to facilitate bulk system administration tasks.

  1. func - Func is part of the Fedora project and so is specialized to their architecture. If your hosts are all RedHat/CentOS based, this is the solution for you.

  2. fabric - Fabric is more generic but does generally the same thing at a high level. If your environment is heterogenous (full of different types of systems/distributions), this is probably what you want.
