- $\begingroup$ Interesting! Sounds like you might need to write some code. We have some very bright people here who are experts in many subjects, and I hope that someone here has the expertise to help. $\endgroup$rclocher3– rclocher32020-12-09 16:57:10 +00:00Commented Dec 9, 2020 at 16:57
- 1$\begingroup$ Hi! Thanks for the welcoming! Yeah, I wouldn't mind writing some code, that's how I think they do it, is using a combination of bash scripts on the user nodes and php/perl scripts on the servers. $\endgroup$byaeger– byaeger2020-12-09 17:21:09 +00:00Commented Dec 9, 2020 at 17:21
- $\begingroup$ Ooh, in your shoes I'd be seriously considering junking the entire project if I knew I had to write Perl code... (I kid, I've held my nose and edited Perl before.) $\endgroup$rclocher3– rclocher32020-12-09 17:27:39 +00:00Commented Dec 9, 2020 at 17:27

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. antenna-theory), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
